I've got the decorating done, a few more packages to send, and a couple of cards to mail. Finally found Christmas crackers for my kids and the grandkids. They are a "necessary" after all these years and are the instigation for some great shenanigans.
Remember,
On the range, in the bunkhouse, the local saloon, or life in general...
* I just got back from taking Dad to radiation and find that you all love the Christmas tree as much as I do, But I didn't make it! I'm humbled that you would think me talented enough to have designed it.
I wish I knew who did make it, as I would love to give them credit. Brig

Ol' Gus shines up like a new penny, don't he? So does Woodrow, just FYI.

DeleteYou have a great talent for modern western decorating. I love that tree!!
ReplyDeleteSee my * note. Merry Christmas!
DeleteI really like your style in decorating. What a nice way to celebrate the season!
ReplyDeleteWish it was my doing, it is a style I love.
Deletevery pretty tree! so artsy!
ReplyDeletePretty cool uh, making one sorta like it...
DeleteWhat a great tree! Lonesome Dove is one of my favorites. I have no idea any longer how man times I've watched it. I think you have plenty of style.
ReplyDeleteLonesome Dove is a fav of mine, too. See my * note.
Deleteer.. how many times
ReplyDeleteThat tree is amazing! Love it.
ReplyDeleteI love it, too!
DeletePrayers for your dad and for you.
ReplyDeleteGreat tree!
Thanks Padre, keep'n the faith here. A Blessed Christmas to you.
DeletePrayers and stuff. Lots. You're way ahead of me. My Naval Academy Missionary woodshop-dad made a hanging Christmas tree that we had overseas where there are no pines. It's like a Calder mobile: On a bunch of hanging-stacked (about ten inches apart) triangular wedge-bases, are tapered "branches" have lightening cut through with various sized hole-saws/drills onto which we hung small glass ornaments. Very Mid-Century actually. If Dad had a commercial mind instead of a Missionary-mind we might have been rich...
ReplyDeleteWow, what a talented father! Do you have any pictures, I would enjoy seeing his handiwork! Merry Christmas!
DeleteHope things are going well with your dad!
ReplyDeleteKinda a rough weekend for the ol guy, but he is better today. Thanks for thinking of him. Merry Christmas Texan!
DeleteYou're right, I love that tree. We're about ready for one like that, but we grow our own at the moment. Ours are only about three to four feet and look great on a table. We're getting excited about enjoying Christmas with our three year old Grandson.
ReplyDeleteI think of you and your Dad often. Merry Christmas to you both!
All the wonder and joy of Christmas to you, the Misses and your little guy.
DeleteDad had a christmas tree farm plot at his ol place, a whole lot of work. Nothing smells as heavenly as a real tree.
Blessed be, Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas Brighid!
