Christmas was Wonderful!!

Our Family has had a wonderful Christmas season. This year, I made a new tree skirt for my livingroom Christmas Tree. On this tree the only ornaments on it are of the Savior, Family, Community, and Winter. I also have some pearls and some burgundy bows. This tree is what the real meaning of Christmas is to me. First and foremost the celebration of the birth of Christ, our Savior. 2nd, its about time with those I love, family and about my ancestors, whose who made me possible. 3rd, about our community, our neigbors and town and friends. 4th Winter, the world is white and appears clean and crisp. I have glass icicles on my tree. I had a burgundy plaid tree skirt under my tree in the past few years, but it wasn't right. So this year I made a new treeskirt. This skirt represents the life of Christ through photos of painting from LDS Artists. Most are by Greg Olsen, one by Liz Swindle and a couple from artist I am not sure who they are. I will find out and give them credit. I believe one came from my gospel art packet. I have chosen a picture that respresnts different times in the life of Christ. The only thing that is not represented is the 2nd coming, because it hasn't happened yet. The tree skirt is trimmed with a ruffle and pearls above the ruffle. Around each picture I have framed them with ribbons. I absolutely love my new tree skirt. It fits the tree perfectly.  I love it, love it, love it!!!
