Palm Springs Rat Pack - 4 new members



Visitors!!!

Conrad, Jacqueline, Louella and Jeanti are our first official visitors! Hooray!

We have a fabulous first night together decorating the Christmas tree - We have bought this fabulous sixties FROSTED tree, and did I mention we found a chest full of vintage decorations in the garage - what the ...

Grant and Conrad test the miles of fairy lights, while the ladies sift through all the vintage ornaments, each one carefully wrapped in tissue paper (before thoughtfully being left behind in our garage!)

We callously create a pile of UGLY balls to be discarded - things that unknown kiddies with busy fingers have made from popsicle sticks - and spend the next three days hiding the ugly balls in each others luggage. I have not found any ugly balls here, so I'm assuming they are now living in Chez Exton.ho ho ho.

We're aiming for 100 decorations on the tree and just as it looks like we won't make it, we have another Christmas miracle - the Extons have bought us a box of Christmas balls in Disneyland! wheee!!!

we have the best. tree. ever, to kick off the best. christmas. ever. happy holidays.
