Sea & Sky Tree

We're not a very traditional family when it comes to holidays. We're always mixing it up a bit. I think I got that from my sister and stepmother who were always thinking of crazy fun things to do for the holidays. For example: one year our family had a city-wide scavenger hunt, one year an auction with a real auctioneer, another we had a costume party. Strange but really fun!

Decorations in my house are never the same. We might have a tree, we might not. Last year I decorated a wicker trunk and put all the gifts in it. One year, Katie and I decided that we wanted a tree that had sea shells and birds on it, just because we like those two things. So, we called it the Sea & Sky Tree. We glued ribbon to shells and found stuff we liked and put it on the tree. This year, we wanted to see that tree again, so I pulled out all the shells and birds and did it again. Here are some pix of it:

Steave says the starfish reminds him of Patrick Star from Spongebob.
