It's Christmas time in the city

The Intern was back visiting her old haunts this weekend and we decided to do some decorating. This is probablly the first time in more than ten years that I've played a part in decorating the tree as I usually avoid it (and the inevitable arguements that go along with it) like the plague. And surprisingly this time no one got hurt.

I really like the outcome. The tree is simple and the decorations are tasteful, except for the twelve bulbs that "twinkle in random fashion." Every once in a while the tree looks like it's trapped in a stobe light, or having a seizure. But that's what I get for not reading the box carefully.

Oh Christmas tree! Oh Christmas tree!

How deciduous you are!
