Decorating for Christmas

So far December has been a pleasantly hectic month both at home and at the work place. Apart from marking tests and compositions, I spent last weekend decorating the school and getting it ready for our Christmas party on December 21st. It's also the time when my junior students learn to sing Christmas Carols in English. I love my Junior A's sense of achievement  when they can finally sing Jingle Bells in English.

This week end, I've been decorating at home. It's the first time in years that Alkis has taken a few days off work and helped me put up the lamps in our Christmas tree! I really enjoy decorating for Christmas! In fact, I am a Christmas freak!  I always decorate two Christmas trees at home - a big one in the living-room and a small one in my study room, right next to my computer.

Your Christmas tree is so pretty, and you've done a great job decorating your house beautifully. I think that's a good idea to also have another Christmas tree at your workstation...i might adapt the idea once I get a "real workstation." Just like you, I love decorating for Christmas. But then , since our place today is so crammed with stuff, I can't do it anymore. But then, we'll be purchasing a bigger space someday for me to decorate.

Your Christmas trees are so beautiful, especially the big one in the living room. It's absolutely fantastic! I'm going to put up mine tomorrow afternoon after work and I think I'm going to steal some of your ideas.

As always, your Christmas decorations are very beautiful and very elegant. I love your Santa in white and Rudolph next to the tree in your living room...oh and the grapes below the star on the small tree.

I am impressed! It seems that you are an expert at decorating. So far, I've only put up the lamps in the garden - it took me an hour to do so but they look nice. Tomorrow wife and kids are planning to decorate the Christmas tree.
