Enter: One tree from the garden.
It is, if you look at it closely (or even glance over it very briefly) a particularly sad and shaggy looking specimen, but it's lived at the house (in the garden) oh so much longer than we have, so it's got certain rights nad we honour it accordingly. All children and dolls out the way and onto the window sill, Papi is bringing The Tree in! (Finally! About time!)
Out the way, here comes the tree *drumroll*
Bit of a job, getting the venerable thing to stand straight
"Mami! Look! Appletee! Fiffviff tee!"
Bring out the ornaments...
... and the lametta ok ok, if we really have to...
There it goes, our shaggy old tree, looking just perfect, and we love it lots (please also note the new shelving left and right of chimney breast. Massive improvement and finally we can go get a few more boxes down... only some 4 to 6 now left in loft!).
(The intention was to write lots more about the kids and "Favver Fiffviff" but, alas, no time, got other things to do. Maybe later, ey?)
