  8. Adorable!

    I am SO stressed by the tree right now! Some lights went out so I had to re-arrange them on the tree. I tried buying more, but they don't seem to sell frosted warm white this year! :/ (My tree is frosted warm white and 1 strand of pearl gold for accent on the lights.)

    Makes me remember when I was growing up and my child hood friend's dad used to say that he wished the tree would just descend from the attic all decorated--sort of like a trapdoor just opens up right in the ceiling and it lowers itself into place, lol!
