Christmas Flowers.
15 Dec 2009 10:17 pmI have been busy writing cards for the past hour or two - a mixture of home-made, Hospice, and 'really nice ones from M&S which are nicer than the home-made ones' - to be honest, if I'd seen the M&S ones earlier there may have been even less home-made ones!
Anyway - with any luck most that need posting will be in the post tomorrow. And I've got a lot of the baking ready to start putting into bags - just got to get the decorations more or less done before D-d gets home on Friday.
But I have a bit of a back-log of things I meant to post here - so under the cut are some pictures of the wonderful flowers in Church for Christmas.
The first picture shows one of the displays that stand at the ends of some of the rows of chairs, looking towards the sanctuary.

Now some of the sanctuary flowers -



And now some of the displays around the walls - out Church does not have traditional windows to decorate, light is from windows at ceiling level, and so we have displays against plain walls instead -



And the very tasteful Christmas Tree at the back of church -

And then there is the tree in the Sunday School room - and the self-assembly nativity - a bit less tasteful, but very enthusiastically decorated - the older children do lights and the top, the smaller ones do the bottom half!

Then a small person has to be lifted up to put the angel on the top - all very traditional!
Tomorrow I have a few 'churchyard' pictures to post - can't beat a good churchyard to get you in the festive mood... or maybe not!
