What is it???

Glance at this picture, then look away quickly.

What was your first impression?

Brother and I both thought it looks like a Christmas tree covered in lights.  Look again.  Can you see it?

Have you figured out what it really is?

Yup, a pile of dirty laundry!  Isn’t that funny?

The “lights” are white polka dots on my pajamas.

How could it have fallen been thrown into such a perfect tree shape?

And yes, I did clean it up, and go wash them! Yay for me.

Here’s the proof.

I woke up, and BAM! I’m having a purple Christmas!

 


Now, to show you the REST of my Purple Christmas story.

You’re already seen my Joy,  and my Star,

 Just happens to be my middle name.  (Could that be why I love it???)

Just happens to be my middle name. (Could that be why I love it???)

I'm a star!

I’m a star!

And my Nativity.  

 

And my window lights.

Sparkly! Purple!

Sparkly! Purple!

Now, feast your eyes on my Purple Tree!

(Sorry the pic is so dark.  I need to improve my photography skills. )

Here is my big tree:

It blinks on, one section at a time. I don’t like that, but since it was a loaner tree, I didn’t fuss!  And not really even a big tree, since it’s only 4 ‘ 1/2″ tall!

I’m in love with the purple poinsettia as the tree topper.

And the 1 purple Christmas card I received:

I guess the other 2 card senders didn’t receive the purple memo!

And my Shiny Grape Wreath!  It’s on the back of the closet door, in the kitchen/entry hall.

I made it myself!

I made it myself!

(Did you notice I used the grape clusters to cover up the gap in the purple tinsel? Oh, you didn’t? Oopsie! Should have kept my big mouth shut!)

And the random Purple Ornaments, stuck to the walls.

And there you have it, my purple Christmas.

Sure hope I get some purple presents!

Update: I did! 2 in fact. Yay!
