I am currently sitting at my desk in the living room next to the tree. There is another tree in my daughter's room. There are further decorations all over the place.
Personally I'd chuck the lot out in a heartbeat given half a chance but my wife and daughter love it.
The food is a different story. I love having slightly more people round on Christmas Day than we can manage and cooking from 6 am. Its the one time of year where Georgia and I cook together in the kitchen and it is complete bedlam every year. Somehow, however, by about 3 pm there is a full dinner ready for everyone and despite the fact we are convinced there isn't enough food for everyone we always end up with bucketful's left.
Generally if guests are no longer able to bend enough to sit in the comfy chairs I reckon we got it all just about right.

Kuusi palaa, ja on viimeinen kerta kun annan vaimoni laittaa jouluvalot!
