Monday was Decorating Day for this year’s Festival of Trees and we gathered to put together our tree and the space around it. Our theme this year is “Sugarplum Forest” and we did lots of candy. This was a reference to Paul being in “Hansel and Gretl” when he was in junior high and also to his penchant for stashing candy for future eating. There’s a tree, playhouse, bare branches with glitter and bows, and candy jars. It sold last night at the silent auction and will be going to Jim’s Family Restaurant in West Valley where they will display it and then raffle it off to a lucky customer. As always, our tree is on the east end of aisle C.
The decorators are, L to R standing: me, Janice Carey Greenhalgh, Karen Carey, Renae Tibbitts, in front: Michelle Carey Rapp and Christine Carey Fazulyanov.
