A Little Christmas (tree) Cheer in the VEHA!

Juli's Christmas Tree

In just a few hours, the VEHA will be lighting up our corner of the world with our annual Christmas Eve luminary display; but my youngest daughter, Juli, got a head start brightening the neighborhood by decorating the little evergreen in our front yard with her hand-made ornaments. She carefully laminated each one to protect it from the weather. It's her personal, living "Christmas card" to our neighbors in the VEHA ... stop and see it, if you're passing our house at 406 Potawatomi - it's saying "Happy Holidays!" to everyone in her own personal style.

Note: This little evergreen started as a cutting we got in exchange for recycling one of our Christmas trees several years ago, as it grows, it will become an even bigger part of our outdoor Christmas celebration every year.

Merry Christmas to everyone in the VEHA!
