Small twinkling lights...and scratchy music...
Mark and I spend this afternoon putting up our little tree.
Last year we moved the tree location from a stand by the living room window...to the top of Mark's Victrola, which sits mostly silent and normally holds a lamp.
While I was putting the 3 foot tree together and stringing our strands of LEDs, Mark chose a few of his favorite 78rpm records.
Crank...hiss...pop...and glorious music!
It was truly a holiday picture out of the early 1900's. Well, except for the LEDs I suppose.
The tree is done. It never fails to calm and thrill me. I'm a sucker for Xmas pageantry.
The fruits of our afternoon of labor:
