   Your room with the tree has such a warm and welcoming glow and your tree will definitely get a thumbs up from Santa...especially since it's conveniently located near his entry point, the fireplace. But, then again, you already got the best present of all...the loving and appreciative hug from your little boy.

   Hello Lesa, Thank you for showing us your lovely tree and Cosy room with stockings hung by the fire. Our Family Tree is the most favorite part for us, too. We look forward to digging out the ornaments dating back over fifty years or more, telling the tale of each to our granddaughters as they pick through and choose their favorites to hang on the tree. My husband puts on Christmas music for us to work by, the fires are lit - it is all magical.
   Marry Christmas to you all.
