Let's see your Christmas Trees please...

I'll have to live vicariously through you guys. There will be no tree here in our home this year and I just want to cry. We'll be traveling and there's just no sense in putting one up. I lost my mom 15 years ago this Christmas so Christmas has always been a time to connect to her.

I haven't seen any of my children or grandchildren in over a year since we moved to TN so I promised them I'd go back to NY.

I have up 6 trees so far. I will be featuring them on my blog one a day until they are all shown.

2 hours? Lisa it takes 5 hours to hang all of the ornaments on my big tree. Not putting on lights or garlands or other things associated with the tree. Just hanging the ornaments. I have 24+ years worth of collected ornaments.

Tennessee I agree with TCL, put it up. It doesn't have to be a big production and take 5 hours! Put up a small tree and hang your favorite ornaments. The ones that bring back happy memories of your Mom. Also

to you, I lost my Mom 8 years ago. Christmas was her favorite holiday, so the first one was really hard for me. I did put up a tree, begrudgingly, and I was glad I did. That was ALL I did that year but the next year it got a little easier. NOW my house looks like Christmas exploded in here! Hang in there sweetie!
