    For those who celebrate. :)

    Tonight will be the last time the tree is lit for this holiday season.

    I will miss the pretty lights being on at night. :)

    I'm kind of sad I never even plugged my tree in this year. I never took it down last year...but I might soon. It's just one of those teeny little 3 foot trees, so I'll likely just put a garbage bag on it as is and put it away in the extra room. Oh sigh, poor little tree.

    Tomorrow is actually Christmas in eastern orthodox churches, so there's actually one more day to light the tree!

    My heritage is Ukrainian and we always celebrated two Christmas' when I was young. Now that my grandparents and parents are dead, we no longer do the fancy meals and exchange gifts on Ukrainian Christmas. But I still keep the tree up and lit until after it passes.

    They had medics in the stable? :)

    It is Epiphany for some, so yes, it is celebrated as well.

    My family has always celebrated little Christmas, it is the end of the season for us. The kids have a little parcel hidden in the tree and after they find it the tree comes down.

    I am going to miss the pretty lights. :)
