You remind me I've got to start making the round of the malls.....they have fairytale-like trees decorated in all possible ways! I still stick to the traditional!I like what you did here, colouring just some of the decorations! But blue only........are you blue?

@tyan: Hey Sweetie, have no fear there will be a few 'so-so' LOL, I celebrate Christmas until Dec 26, I love this time so much, after Dec 26 though it's over for me. New Year? New promises, sure, it's neat, but it's not Christmas :)

Bron from Canberra, Australia

G'day treasure! I Love your shot!! We put our tiny real tree up yesterday for an early (11th) Christmas with the kids - their band's touring into Queensland over Christmas - we'll go check out mum's tree LOL!!
I've missed you but have been too chronic-fatigue-ish to cope with daily am3!!

2 Dec 2007 3:46pm

@Bron: DDD (Delighted Dear Duchess) How lovely to see you, and no worries, take care of You, the Soul can get so tired. When I get weary, (Who me?) I remember that Jesus came down to add more Love in our Heart. That's it, that's enough. Without Him, we would have destroyed each other a long time ago. So let's celebrate His Love and not care about the rest, but I do love trees LOL

Bob from New Jersey, United States

I was at the mall yesterday fighting the crowds,
Nice picture,
I hope you don't have a blue Christmas.

2 Dec 2007 4:31pm

@Bob: Hey Bob, thanks...all my shopping is done, sometimes I go to malls to listen to Christmas carols, and watch the crowd go nuts LOL

Jasp from Plymouth, United Kingdom

It's a blue Christmas.

2 Dec 2007 4:55pm

@Jasp: It often is Rich, but not here, here it's all White :)

laughingwolf from Canada

reminds me of elvis' 'blue christmas'....

2 Dec 2007 5:24pm

@laughingwolf: Wolf, I love all Christmas songs and carols :)

amy from Rocky Mountain House, Canada

Really like the selective colouring... but you're just pushing that envelope for me. I gotta get shopping!! ARRRRGGGHH!

2 Dec 2007 9:22pm

@amy: LOL The earlier, the better Amy, than you can go back and just enjoy the mad crowd and music and not have a care ;)

Walt from Scarborough, Canada

I was at the mall briefly on Saturday - what a zoo - happy nearly everything is done, to say the least. Nice colouring!

2 Dec 2007 9:27pm

@Walt: Hey Walt, you can get sneaky and have some great snapshots ;) and thanks!

Martine from Québec, Canada

Bravo Lorraine! Beau traitement et bonne idée pour ce début décembre!

2 Dec 2007 10:29pm

@Martine: Eh, merci beaucoup Martine :)

Barbara from Florida, United States

The selective coloring makes for an interesting effect. It is that time of year again. I miss the old fashioned spirit and without snow (in the south) it has never been the same. The real spirit is in the heart. Wishing you Happy Holidays.

2 Dec 2007 10:39pm

@Barbara: Hey thanks and well said Barbara, I can't imagine Christmas without snow, but truly, like you say, it's in the heart. Plus historians confirm Jesus was not born in Winter...But since Winter Solstice was accepted as a celebration of Jesus, I'm all for it. He came down to add Love to our heart, everything else is surperfluous. I'm crazy about Jesus, truly LOL

Stunner from Kingston, Jamaica

Neat job at the selective colouring Lorraine!

2 Dec 2007 11:59pm

@Stunner: Thanks a lot Stunner :)

Rebecca from Leicester, United Kingdom

@Rebecca: That is sweet Rebecca, thanks a lot :)
