Decorating for Christmas

Last Sunday, my church started decorating for Christmas. We started by taking the tree out and starting to try to piece it together.

It slowly got put together, each piece needing to go in a specific place, like a puzzle.

Streamers were hung from the wood panels above the windows.

Hanging garlands and making funny faces over a window.

Putting the star on top of the tree, it was always my favorite part as a child.

Another silly-faced pose . . . no wonder I get along with this church so well.

A cute smile, rather than a funny face.

Another cute smile. This is one of the little girls I claim as my church little sisters. She’s about the same age as my actual little sister.

Another one of said church sisters.

Then of course, I had to get decorated here’s one of our hair.

After all the Christmas decorations were taken out of my hair, I was given a very Japanese style hair-do.

It was loads of fun working with everyone to decorate our church for Christmas. Unfortunately with all the hair antics, I missed out on getting a shot of the outcome. I’ll try to get one next time.
