To set up our Christmas tree and village, but since we’re going away for that week, we never set it up (it just ends up being a lot of work for us not to even enjoy it on Christmas). So we usually set the whole thing up every two years. Yet for some reason, we didn’t do it last year, and I’m trying to remember why but I can’t. Oh well … Here are photos from our 2011 set up.

BUT, here’s what it looks like from the stairs (my view as I come downstairs from my bedroom).

*happy sigh* I guess I can just stare at the pics all day, haha!

In other news, I really am not into this WoW Expansion. I really tried the last two days, but my heart just isn’t in it. So I need a new game to fill my free time. Any ideas? Preferably a ‘no monthly fee’ type of game.

I do think I want to get back into making graphics though (there’s one in this photo set lol) … I remember I used to have a lot of fun making icons and banners, and all sorts of good stuff, but then my computer fritz’d on me, I replaced the hard drive and could not find my photoshop CD (I used elements). I may just use Christmas money to get a new digital copy (never get lost bwahahah) and get back into that.

I also still have that damn book idea floating around in my head but with all the school writing I’ve been doing the last thing I want to do is … write. Sad, I know. I am hoping I can get some done during the break. I’ve written the ideas down, so I’m not too worried about them disappearing, but I’m itching to write but just don’t have the energy for it lol

Anywho …it sleeted last night, but since it turned to rain early enough this morning we didn’t get a work delay, but people are still not here (and it’s been an hour), so it’s very quiet at work lol … Now it’s pouring like crazy out and it’s supposed to be like that the next few days. I love rain, but only when I am home and can doze in and out to it :D

I have never seen such majestic beauty in one photo before...*.*

I have Adobe Photoshop 7.0 that I could send you if you want to get back into makin' icons. :)

I bet. I have a small village going as well, but not quite the collection you have. I probably have a couple more years to have it that big. :)

Aw, well, the offer still stands if you ever change your mind. <3

That I'm not allowed to have a Christmas village o__o I'd probably pretend to be Godzilla.

It does look very pretty though~

I haven't used photoshop in years. I used to use elements as well but oh my gawd I was so awful at it D: I started using FireAlpaca when my sister introduced me to it and that was after I used Corel Painter. Though I tend to use my programs just to draw instead of icons and banners. I used to do icons when I was younger but I just don't feel the same passion for them anymore lol XD

That christmas village is really cool and cute. I always wanted to do the train around the tree thing, but it never happened.

game suggestions:

Star Wars the old republic: F2P, but micro transactions. very WoW like though.

Guild Wars 2: You have to buy the game, but after that no fee. Never played it myself, but Girlfriend loved the hell out of it.

Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn: Ok it does have a fee, but if you just play one character it's cheaper than WoW (by like a couple bucks).
