Once a year my whole family (or most of it) gets together for the Decorating of the Christmas tree, a much anticipated event. Mums makes far too much food, we play card games (or in this years' case, "Guesstures".... somewhat like charades), watch Christmas specials, listen to Handel's" Messiah" about 800 times through, and drink champagne, then everyone falls into a serious food coma and Mums decorates the tree entirely by herself. Everyone else encourages her by telling her how well the tree decorating is coming along, and how they'll get up in just a minute and put something on the tree (this rarely happens).
Thanks Mum for being a such a good sport, and loverly job on the tree, as always!
