Pictures of your Christmas Tree

Does anyone feel like sharing their Christmas spirit this year? New forum members in 2024 might want to share :)
We are the 19th and I haven't done one single deco as of yet although I have 2 kids, and the youngest still believes in Santa Claus. Each year I feel more reluctant... Am I normal?
It's such a burden to have to store these things all year just to have them out for 3-4 weeks. I have to dig them out of the garage and ugh... I'm so gloomy this year. Anyhow, let's cheer up a bit. Here's a picture of my Piano decoration from past years.

Cute kitty!

This year my nephew bought new baubles with each of our names on them so we went minimalist with just those and lights. We will also have the delight of my 13 month old great niece. It's been a long time since there were littlies at Christmas with my nephew and niece now in their 30's.

I suppose it depends of our mood. When I was working at a very commercial area, all of the Christmas products were shown since October, and many cheap ones, so at that time, I certainly I didn't feel like putting anything at home, for me it was more than enough seeing that daily, but I In retrospect, I was also depressed, in that state many things are not important.

Now I live with family, again at my parents' house (my mom, my dad is deceased, although he is still present, my brother, his daughter, and often come my sister, her husband and their son).

The decorations are an accumulation over the years, some are more than 40 years old, and here not only the Christmas Tree is placed but also the Nativity Scene.

This time the tree decor contains stuffed animals brought by my sister. I actually don't like them very much, but I set up the tree and tried to make it look nice with those. It also has other objects that I brought from when I decorated the area at work, a couple of embroidery objects that I made last year, felt figurines that my sister brought last year and Mexican handmade spheres.

I like that Santa very much, he rests very placidly after working all night.:-)
