2008-12-11 [FamousPanda]: we only have the lights on it.. no ornaments yet. I think it looks like its black and white with a color technique on the lights lol

2008-12-11 [Alexi Ice]: It does kind of. Lol, my Xmas tree really IS black! It is awesome and I will have to post a picture up as soon as we drag ours out of the laundry room ...LOL...

2008-12-16 [Captain Rachel Black]: ...do they have to be ornaments or can they be anything we use as decoration? Assuming said decoration is Christmasy XD

2008-12-16 [Linderel]: Just Christmasy decoration will do :P

2008-12-16 [Captain Rachel Black]: Oh Good! Because I have the perfect idea!

2008-12-17 [Chrysilla]: Everyone does globes now?

2008-12-18 [Thistlewood]: I'd show you the whole tree, except the kittens helped us undecorate. They also bent the tree to a funny angle.

2008-12-19 [FamousPanda]: I just took the first picture cause we didn't have the ornaments on the tree yet. lol

2008-12-19 [Xuan.]: should I explain my proofs? babies are hard to keep still lol! one of the bags in the back ground is the same bag the baby is chewing on in the second picture. the balls and pillow and bags are also in the first picture :]

this is fun. am i on topic?

2008-12-19 [Linderel]: I'm not sure I'd call the bag a decoration as such, but the first one is fine. :)
Also, that kid is unbelievably cute.

2008-12-20 [Xuan.]: Thank you. He is my god son, and he is such a blessing! I will work on getting a different decoration pic.

2008-12-20 [Artsieladie]: Loving these photos! Me lurves Christmas decorations and decorating. [Thistlewood], hehe, aren't kitties just delightful lil' helpers? They have their preferences, too! ;) Precious, [Xuan.], very precious! I also love his red hair. :) [Rebulous], very nice! I'm glad to see your participation! :D

2008-12-20 [Rebulous]: [Artsieladie], thanks! I am striving to be a more involved Elftowner. Encouragement like yours is very, well, encouraging! :-)

2008-12-20 [Xuan.]: Thanks! this is the first time in like 7 years of being on elftown that I've ever done in any competitions :] 

He's a beautiful little red head!

2008-12-21 [Artsieladie]: Great, [Xuan.]! I love to see Elftowners enjoy themselves here and entering the contests is a nice part of the fun, I think. Hopefully, now that you've cracked the ice, so to speak, we will be seeing a lot more? *hopes* :) I love red hair!

[Rebulous], you're welcome. I think you're off to a very good start! Well, I know when I've received encouragement from others, it was indeed nice to hear and it does go a long way to minimising any doubts we may have in ourselves. Settling in to a new town, can be a little intimidating, too. ;)

2008-12-21 [Alexi Ice]: I dont have a hammer...............................................................so I wrote hammer on a peice of paper. Is that ok?

2008-12-21 [Artsieladie]: hehe I think so. ;)

2008-12-21 [Artsieladie]: I think that's fine! It's still a proof and it does have a hammer in it, though a 'written' hammer! :)

2008-12-21 [Alexi Ice]: Ok good. Cuz I honestly cant find a hammer.

2008-12-21 [Artsieladie]: Well, this serves the same purpose. It's just that some object has to be thought of, so this round it was a hammer. ;) I have several hammers, but no digital camera! So, this leaves me out of the photo contests. :P

2008-12-21 [Alexi Ice]: Oh, I take mine with my phone mostly. lol. They for the most part turn out fairly well
