Wonderful challenge, Caren!
I don't particularly like Christmas... since I have been divorced (it's now spent a lifetime), Christmas has been for me a day of aches and pains... my children went with his father to make ski in the Alps and I remained alone.
Even now that they are now grown and married,  they spend the night with his father (now has become their tradition) and the next day was spent with the parents of their wives. Sometimes even I go home of parents of a daughter in law... but it's not the same thing as having all the children together. I celebrate December 26 with my children and grandchildren.
I don't do more than the Christmas tree because my Meniere not let me, but I put the lights around the railing of the staircase that leads up into the attic! And the gifts I put them in a basket under the stairs!
I love the colours and flowers of Christmas... I have no pictures yet, maybe I'll try some of last year!

Good challenge to all!  :-)
