The Christmas tree is up (sorry about that Swiss neighbours) and today was the big decoration reveal.
Every year each family member chooses a new decoration for the tree, which they keep secret until the tree is up.
Then we each talk about what we chose and why, and add our new decorations.
As always there were some good choices (it is always so interesting to see what the kids have chosen), but the most popular this year was mine - I wonder why :))

I have that piggy decoration on my tree as well. My brother brought it for me last year as a christmas present. It is also one of my favourite decorations as well.
 
My tree is too small for decorations...it's barely 2 feet tall, although it's covered with tiny lights. I also have a beautiful light up cathedral, which my father loved before he died.

That is it for Christmas decorations for me. I'm really very fussy, and I don't like most of the things in the shops.

On the bright side, I now do have every back issue of the GPM to read, including issue 21 on the iPad.

In all honesty I a also a fan of 'less is more' at Christmas, but I also have 2 wildly excited kids who are all about as much glitter and sparkle and lights as possible, so we tend to end up going with that!
Your light up Cathedral sounds beautiful @Flamestriker and I always think anything that is connected to family or associated with a precious memory is really special.
