Thyme to decorate the tree! Mr Farmhouse (Dave) suggested we do a full size Vintage tree this year! Since being in Florida, we have been doing a coastal theme on our main tree:

Where Do We Put the Christmas Tree?

and a much smaller Vintage table top tree:

Let’s Get Started Decorating the Tree with Vintage Christmas Ornaments!

Fluffing the artificial Christmas tree

Dave did the initial fluffing out in the lanai while I gathered the ornaments, ribbon and garland.

Once Dave had the tree all fluffed and had added the lights, I started adding the hot pink ribbon streamers.

I made a large bow and added 7 ribbon streamers.  The number of streamers would depend on how large your tree is.  This is a 6 ft artificial tree.

After adding the lights and the ribbon, we brought it inside to finish decorating it!

Ready To Add The Decorations

Many of the pink vintage ornaments belonged to my Mom.  She purchased them in Chicago at Marshall Fields in the early 60s.  Most of the other glass ornaments I have collected over the years.

Pictured below is a portion of my collection.  I was trying to organize them after Christmas one year.  I thought it would be fun to organize them by color.  It wasn’t…..

Sorting holiday ornaments

In addition to the glass ornaments, I added beaded garland, a few floral picks and some silk flower heads.

The tiny pink baby shoes were mine as a baby.  If you have been following the blog, you already know my Mother saved practically everything!  If you are just getting started with my blog journey, you can read more about my Mom and her propensity to save things here:    She used to tell people to check with her first before purchasing something as she probably had what they were looking for!  And a lot of the time, she did!

The only non vintage ornaments we added where the ceramic ones with our dogs’ names on them.

I love the tiny white bells that are attached to the bead garland.  They are so precious!

I don’t talk about my faith a lot. I do believe I don’t talk about my faith a lot.  I do believe God puts certain people in your path for a reason.  An example of this occurred on Tuesday.  It was colonoscopy/sigmoidoscopy day.  I was really nervous about how it would all work since it was my first time since I had my cancer surgery. 

 The nurse that was taking care of me in the pre op area turned out to be the same nurse who had prayed for me last year. My husband was in the parking lot of the medical center speaking with his friend who happened to work at the center with this particular nurse. I was very sick at the time and they prayed for my healing.  It was great to be able to thank her in person and let her see that the prayers had been answered. ❤️

Then the anesthesiologist came in and told me about his cousin who had also been diagnosed with Stage 4 colon cancer about a year ago. He mentioned some of the treatments his cousin had had and how important a positive attitude is.  I was touched that he took the time to tell me about his cousin’s experience. 

 We had arranged in advance to have my husband’s friend as the nurse anesthesist.  He was able to pray with us as well as reassure us about the procedure.

The procedure went well. The three polyps that the surgeon removed were sent to pathology.  The report is already back and there no evidence of cancer.  Prayers were answered again❤️
