Do you ever have to cover stuff?

Lol, your tree being up definitely deserves it's own layout!! I didn't see it until I was searching for it!
(But I'm a little jealous...on Friday night we were out picking up dinner & it was snowing the biggest, fluffiest snowflakes and I said I wished our tree was still up because it would have felt so cozy!)

Most notably, I made my mom a calendar with pictures of my kids & one of them was from the big gas crater when we lived in Turkmenistan. My dad was visiting and he was in all of the pictures, but my parents are divorced, so I just tucked him behind some flowers, lol...sorry, Dad!

Gurrrrrl, this is the story of my life. I try to take pics in portrait mode if we're in the kitchen to make some of our clutter less noticeable. Or change angles or zoom in to get less background stuff. I'm all for cropping and adding elements over stuff I want to hide!

And I looked hard and I still can't see your tree.

I was so proud of myself for not forgetting any decorations when I was putting Christmas away but I still have a box of ornaments in the living room I keep forgetting to take downstairs and just today I brought in the 6 rolls of wrapping paper I bought on sale that have been riding around in my car for 2 months. <sigh>

What is it about buying holiday papers in clearance and feeling like a million bucks! This year I found only 1 roll I liked in sale, but again I didn't go searching for them like previous years. I could wrap my house if there was a need, yep, I have enough paper.

My biggest bug bear is video ... I know I should record the kids more but I hate how messy our place gets and there is no hiding in video. At least with photos there are ways to hide it either with effects or placing things over it when scrapping. As for the Christmas tree - ours seems to stay up half the year every year - we have "elves" that visit while the tree is up and my girls always begged to keep the tree up longer so they'd stay for their next big event.... starting school or holidays or easter etc. Then when covid hit they said the elves might die if they travel so they had to stay with us. It won't be long until they no longer believe in all that, so I thought I might as well indulge them.
