If we lived outside of Christmas tree country it would be different. I am so sorry about your friend's daughter. I can't imagine what she's going through. I hope that you enjoy the low-key holidays.

(Doesn't EVERYone love to talk about their weather? I think it gives us a little snapshot on what is happening where our blogger friends live, which I like a lot.) <br />What if global warming is less about what humans have done & more like a natural cycle of our planet that plays out slowly over thousands of years? We wouldn't be able to prove the theory that it is a natural phenomenon because it will have been happening for many, many centuries before recorded history. I saw a documentary about this topic that seemed very possible - food for thought. <br /><br />Gorgeous tree for $30! We used to buy trees when the kids were young & the boy scouts were the receiving charity. Since moving out into the bush years ago, Mr Shoes has actually chosen in advance the Christmas trees for the rest of our lives. <br />You think I'm kidding, but about 50 evergreens scattered around the property, flagged with survey tape, mowed around, limbs trimmed & trained, would say different. ;-)<br />This years' tree, however, will now be next years' tree - this year we are celebrating what we're calling the Un-Christmas. Our children will both be away, Mr Shoes is working straight through the holidays (no rest for essential services) & so that takes away most of my incentive to 'do it up right'. Another reason to keep it low key here is that my BFF (whose daughter Kaydance was abducted by T's legal wife in May 2016) is not in a place to feel in a celebratory mood when she has just missed her daughter's 2nd birthday & now will miss her second Christmas as well - it's heart-breaking. <br /><br />BUT I actually LOVE this post, love ornaments & I've been replacing all my kid-friendly ones with very fancy ones I can't afford before Christmas; I usually buy one or 2 really lovely ornaments after Christmas on clearance. <br /><br />I would be very excited to see what CFS can come up with for you since she's offered - you have a lot of lovely pics of both your beautiful Dancers. Whatever you decide will be the right decision, & it will be beautiful.<br />Mrs Shoeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02636736944375337989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8459505622378142466.post-50003325093845170882016-12-17T12:57:21.153-04:002016-12-17T12:57:21.153-04:00but didn't you hear?

I need to get mine from my parents so that I can put up a real tree next year. This year I have baby ornaments on a little potted spruce tree which is still pretty cute but not quite the same.Piccoloponyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08275679567725425281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8459505622378142466.post-62821117896667056452016-12-17T08:20:25.179-04:002016-12-17T08:20:25.179-04:00Thanks :)Thanks :)TeresaAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05311118900077951863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8459505622378142466.post-24981839199541143772016-12-17T08:20:04.012-04:002016-12-17T08:20:04.012-04:00I agree with your thoughts and have played some mo...I agree with your thoughts and have played some moreTeresaAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05311118900077951863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8459505622378142466.post-63279640613339100642016-12-17T08:19:28.074-04:002016-12-17T08:19:28.074-04:00Thank you for that.

If you did this and put Carmen on the left, then the slope in Steele's photo would run into the slope in Carmen's photo... if that makes sense?

I like both pictures. Steele's picture is beautiful, he does look like a dancing horse. And Carmen is gorgeous too. Maybe you could make a montage and include Irish too. I never stick with one picture on my blog but change it for each post. Then again I don't post as much as I used to so that might be hard since you do post regularly. So I guess to sum it up just do what you want. I don't think you can make a wrong decision.Grey Horse Mattershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05837575441967937196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8459505622378142466.post-63894645936277536502016-12-16T17:14:05.208-04:002016-12-16T17:14:05.208-04:00Oh, I like both photos too!!
