Christmas was a long time coming to the MOTUS house this year. We didn’t even get the tree out until this week and when we did the result was, well, predictable.
There’s always one naysayer in every crowd
Turned out to be one string that wasn’t plugged in so an easy fix but I was discouraged and let it sit unadorned for several days. We finally got it together when these arrived and shamed us into completing the task.
Two gorgeous His and Her bouquets from the MOTI! So, so big and beautiful. As usual my pictures really don’t do them justice but here’s a closeup of Raj’s.
Deep red and white roses, shiny red/green leaves, hydrangeas, purple thistles and red berries and greens all tied up with a green bow.
And Hers:
Deep fuchsia and white roses, white peonies, red amaryllis, red berries and greens with a burgundy bow. I know everything doesn’t show up in my pictures but they’re all there! Including pomegranates in both.
His and Hers, as beautiful on the backside
And here we are, thanks to all of you, properly decked out. It’s finally looking a lot like Christmas around here. It may have been late coming this year but the MOTUS home is now done up proper, with love and care.
Even my tree, now lit top to bottom:
and topped off this year by the little wolfie Jettie sent me for my birthday.
Raj and I cannot thank all of you enough for your kindness, thoughtfulness and generosity. You spoil us rotten (butt we love it).
Again, our heartfelt thanks. Now get those ovens fired up: those Christmas cookies aren’t going to make themselves!
As if! (unless you’re Robin)
