Oh Tannenbaum, Oh Tannenbaum

When Tony was here for Thanksgiving, we got the tree all set up - with his help, the chore was easier! It's hard to realize that some of the ornaments on the tree are 30+ years old. Mostly, those older ones date back to our 1976-78 years in Germany, and have become real treasures over the years. In the "olden" days, when we had live trees, the magic date was around the 10th of December, so that the tree (or trees) wouldn't get too old before Christmas. We miss the scent of the live trees, but are thankful that we don't have safety issues with artificial one that so perfectly graces our living room this season.
