Mommy Moments: Christmas Tree

mommy moments

We bought our Christmas tree 4 years ago. I can still remember the day we got it...t'was already late in the afternoon, after M's work on a Saturday, bringing along Leon who was barely 9 months old, we went to the infamous Divisoria to buy our dream 8 feet tall Christmas tree! We had a good deal on our tree as compared to buying it from department stores, almost half the price.

4 years after, it still stands tall. Leon helped me in decorating the tre
e this year (though I wasn't able to take photos of him). The tree, as time goes by, is still a work in progress. Since it's too big, decorating it entails quite an amount and we can't do it in one purchase. Besides, we're looking at changing decors from time to time. 4 years ago it was only red, last year we added a touch of yellow and gold to it. Now, there's more yellow in it. Maybe next year it'll be pure yellow and gold.

Here's a picture of us with our tree behind us, taken on...

Idreamt buying a huge tree for my home too but since there's no place for such a big tree para sa usang maliit na bahay satisfied na rin ako sa size na nabili namin 21 years ago pa :)
Basta nasa pag-iingat I'm sure magigiung maganda pa rin ang built tree nyo.
Love the photos here .
Thanks for the visit :)
Have happy Holidays to you & your family as well.God bless :)

wow, its huge Christmas tree.. I also love to have that tall Christmas tree hopefully next year (lol) because currently we only have a 3 ft. Christmas tree. I believe your family was very excited to decorate this huge tree.
