Having myself a Merry little Christmas...

For years I have been wanting to decorate the tree in front of our terrasse. A previous homeowner - not knowing how to dispose of the tree that are sold inside their own pots of earth in this part of the world - had planted his Christmas tree on the communal garden grounds at the end of the festivities.

When we moved in it was a tiny little thing. Over the years I have watched it grow and wished that one year we would spend the holiday season in Spain so I could have my wish come true.

Well, this year we have come to celebrate Christmas in Madrid and I went to town... literally. The house is filled with greenery and red poinsettias, candles and Christmas lights AND my little, big tree has become the extension of our home decor...
