now back to hopes Christmas thread!

Slip really loved these when I posted them in his room, we have two of the Hallmark's Star Trek ornaments, they both speak and have movements, awesome they are!

one says, 'Earth to Spock, come in Spock, Merry Christmas, - with William Shatner's voice.

I'm only here for a little while longer until hubby gets home. He's really tired so I'll probably be back on later too.

For the Christmas thread, instead of mud, the should roll around in ponsettia's!! Now how Christmasy would that be? :yh_rotfl:yh_rotfl

I love christmas too Hope :-4

Hate all the commercialism though that sadly now seems to come hand in hand with it.... our shop have become christmas grottos here since Halloween and it's rammed down your throat BUY! BUY! BUY! The spirit of Christmas has been replaced with want and greed sadly for many.... I feel very sorry for parents of young children having to shop with little ones at this time of year, with the pressure of children wanting everything pushed at them on the shelves.....

I'll put my tree up (artificial - My dogs would eat a real one! LOL) early december, it looks the same 'every' year! LOL

Here's my tree, took this pic dec 2007

Note the baldy tree at the bottom because my dogs steal the ornaments! :wah:

But from the beginning of Dec, I count down the days.....
