Merry Christmas

With Christmas just around the corner, we decided to set up our Christmas tree last night. We actually went to MJC to buy our Christmas tree since it is considered to be a bargain center. True enough the tree only cost us RM59.00. The price ranges between RM16.00 all the way up to RM200.00. We thought the RM59.00 tree looks good enough and decided to get it. It came with some "built in" pine cones!

Well, after that it was time to pick out the decorations. By the time we finished with our purchase, we ended up paying RM156.00. So the moral of the story is, "Pick your deco in moderation". Yes that's right, we went overboard with the deco. There were just too many things to choose from. You will end up saying to yourself, "Must Buy This & Must Buy That". we had earlier on budgeted RM100 only and later on we thought what the heck.... only once a year!



So there you have it, a closeup version of our Christmas tree. It is not the best in the world but I guess that will have to do for this year.



But every wondered what a tropical Christmas tree should have? A butterfly! That's right, we thought since we don't have snow to celebrate a white Christmas, we might as well have some butterflies. After all, who ever said we have to follow western tradition.



Since we have already set up the tree and yet to wrap our presents, it was only fitting to temporarily place a few things under the tree. So we ended up putting some stuff toys to fill the space.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year in advance from me and I hope you all will have a wonderful time spending it with your loved ones.

i know ur feelings of buying the decos overboard.. u shud see the decos they have here.. i am so tempted to buy it n bring it back..

Hey KEn. Great looking tree. We saw some real pines at IKEA. But there's no way we were gonna carry those back!

Ya, don't overload the tree. Otherwise you'll just end up with a structure full of decors.
