Don't know how!


Himself and I spent a leisurely day at home. We had planned to work on the upstairs bathroom. We are replacing the vanity top and putting on new faucets. However, the paneling we had ordered a week ago and that we expected to be able to pick up today, isn't available until next January. If then.

Himself refuses to hook up the water until he can get the material on the wall. I think there should be a way to do a temporary hook up but he's saying not . . . and what do I know.


So, while we wait until NEXT week for a different paneling that we just ordered, today we put up the Christmas tree and got out the Christmas decorations. I have been trying the different settings on my camera trying to get a natural photo of the tree with the lights showing up -- sort of like this collection of Snowmen above. You can tell that is a bunch of snowmen, can't you? Sure you can. Look close!

Anyway, either I just get the LIGHTS of the Christmas tree or I get a Christmas tree in the day light. I can't make it look lit up like these Snowmen. Yes! They are too Snowmen!




























Day time tree.


This year we have multi-colored lights on this tree but next year they will all be clear lights, or amber. I don't know how we migrated to multi-colored lights. Guess the clear ones have given out over the years??

I like the picture of the snowmen and your tree is beautiful! I think our Charlie Brown tree is going up this weekend.

I'm the same way! I went through every setting on my camera and with and without the flash and can't seem to get a decent one.
