my parents’ tree

it’s almost christmas and the tree is up. my parents’ artificial christmas tree has become a tradition in itself; it’s older than i am and truly vintage with it’s wooden trunk and individual colour-coded wire branches. i remember when i was a kid and accidentally broke the base of the tree. i thought i had ruined christmas but my dad engineered a new and improved base and so christmas was saved. almost all of the ornaments have a memory or story attached. below is the “angel section” up top, and rebecca is examining our anne of green gable ornament which we got on a trip to PEI.

watching the christmas tree twinkle at night is still one of my favourite things to do!
