Show Us Your Life~Christmas Trees

I decided to join the blog hop with Kelly's Korner to showcase our Christmas tree. I normally have two trees, but due to my recent surgery we only put up one tree this year. I decorate my tree in red, white and blue since 9/11. I even found online a stars and stripes tree skirt, which I love!

My mother-in-law made red, white and blue bows to add to my tree as well as the
blue and gold bow on the top of our tree.

I also chose to do a patriotic tree because for many years my mom has purchased my siblings and me an ornament from the White House Historical Association. My mom still buys one for us each year. I started the tradition with my mother-in-law when Mike and I started dating and I continue to get one each year for my mother-in-law. This is one of my favorites and it's the 2000 ornament.
