I finally got my tree up tonight. Most of the decorations go back to when I was a little kid. Here's my Charlie Brown Christmas Tree:

Maxie wants to know where the kitty cats are in the doggy themed manger:

A close up of the doggy manger. My sister made it last year for me. Every year, she is going to add another dog. If you can spot Joseph in the manger, that is Fenway's fur. She cut it off him when she dog sat him last year:

The doggie manger is so cute. I love it.

I Loooooove the doggie manger!!!

Here's mine...

The 1st pic is my best attempt of getting the pups to sit still near the tree!

My tree is fake and I don't put all the branches on it, I leave off the back branches so the tree can sit flush up against the wall and take up less room!

Beautiful trees everybody!

Elizabeth, the doggie manger is sooo cute! I had never seen something like that before.

We'll probably put our tree up on Friday. It's an artificial one.

Here is my tree.. something of a rarity here in small town China; I had to go four hours on a bus to Guangzhou to buy it and then bring it home the same way. Quite an adventure but worth it I think

My kitties appreciate it anyway -- every night [IMG]they "steal" a new toy!

That is probably one of the greatest ideas I have ever heard of! Seriously! My living room is so tiny, and jammed with toys that I might do that, too!

Thats what we did this year too. We also left out the whole bottom tier of branches. It made a HUGE difference! My HUGE tree no longer looks so HUGE and fits just perfectly in the room. An added bonus us that none of the cats have even attempted to climb the branches like they've done in the past

Everyone's trees are beautiful!

Elizabethann, I LOVE your dog nativity set, how very cool!

Marissa and I are putting ours up this weekend so I will take pictures. This is our first Christmas on our "own" so this is going to be awesome doing it together......we are so excited.

Gosh, I so love this thread

Elizabethann, You're "Charlie Brown Tree" is so Beautiful~ and of course, I was drawn to the Doggie Navity Scene, Maxie's Espression was such a Bonus!!

Lilith Cherry~ That Christmas Tree is AWESOME~ and, Thank You for that Version of *Winter Wonderland*

and now, drum roll-----, symbols-----Dorothy managed to decorate the tree with a puppy looking on. I have a lot of "very old " ornaments on this little tree

I usually set antique toys underneath it, but I didn't want to take a chance with Jackie~ The old sled doesn't phase her in the least.
