Simply.........Christmas

~

We have thought of many names for our challenge next year, Naturally Frugal, Living Naturally, Continuing the Good Life, etc etc....

Then on Friday evening we went to buy our Christmas tree. We went to a local farm where they had trees galore, little tiddlers, tall elegant trees and trees with little cones on....in short every type of tree for every type of family.

Lying down against the fence and looking nothing spectacular was a green bushy tree and when Lovely Hubby stood it up, it's branches fell into place and it was.... Simply the Perfect Christmas Tree.

~

It was ours, duly paid for and swaddled in its netting it came home with us, we took one look at the tree and pushed aside all thoughts of tinsel. It has been adorned with the hanging baubles collected over the years, with sweet smelling cinamon sticks and with the minimum of twinkly lights.

It's the symbol of our Christmas and also of the coming year -

Our Year of Living Simply.
