While I was gone, a couple of Christmas Elves came by my house. And they were busy!

The old Christmas tree - no room in here with Fiona to set up the large one but I’m still tickled to have one at all!

And it’s not Christmas without the Charlie Brown tree! How touching to put up the little tree on the 27th anniversary of Ma’s death. She passed on the 19th, although her certificate says the 20th because that’s when she was actually pronounced. The elves didn’t put up the Village because they weren’t sure how I’d want to do it this year, but the boxes are here so I can.

I have a little finishing work to do on it all yet - the Village and a few boxes of other things that are part of Christmas to me and the grandkids. But just like the story of the Charlie Brown Tree, those elves knew how much I love Christmas and missed having all the things that make Christmas special. One of the elves would have preferred not to fuss with all of it just to put it all away again in a few days, (given our limited time and how far behind we are on our work here at home) but put that aside and dove right in when the other elf called him about surprising me with it.

I love my elves!
