Well the tree we got from our sponsor J.P. Philbin at 3369 Fairfield Avenue in Bridgeport is up and lit.  I had to wait a few 20141208_180031days expecting the cats to take it down, particularly the kitten.  Surprise!  They just want to drink the water from the tree, not the filtered ice water they get 3 times a day!

When we put up a natural tree we like to do all white lights.  We’ve thought of all blue another color but this is what we always choose.  When we do the artificial tree we prefer multi- colored lights.   What do you do?

When we get the ornaments up will be the true test with the cats.  We also like to add ornaments from previous generations in our family

I’ll post the finished tree as soon as we complete it!
