Christmas trees

We have not set up a real big Christmas tree in years due to downsizing in homes but not possessions.  This year we got to set up two tree my kids are so excited to do this.  Both these trees are at my sister in laws house.  Which is where we will be spending this Christmas. 
 
The first one to go up my children decorated with items their great grandmother made years ago before her passing. This was an eclectic tree but full of so much love and joy for my children.  My children had fun going through the kissing balls and putting them on the tree. Kissing balls which is what my grandmother called these ornaments.  They were originally meant to hang in doorways with mistletoe on them so those passing underneath would have to kiss.
The second tree is the one my sister in law sets up upstairs.  It is a lovely tree full of gold and red more in keeping with how I like to decorate trees.  It usually takes them a week to set up Christmas but with three teens supper excited to decorate a tree took only a few hours.
