A L O H A
From Honolulu!
Our hearts grow tender
with childhood memories
and love of kindred,
and we are better
throughout the year
for having, in spirit,
become a child
again
at Christmas-time.
Laura Ingalls Wilder
Not a Christmas tree,
yet there it stands,
a quiet sentinel
by the door—
its branches laced
with red and green,
a wink of wonder,
nothing more.
The lights hum softly
in the breeze,
each spark a carol
without sound;
the night feels brighter
through the leaves—
Mele Kalikimaka
all around!
Pixie
May you have the
gladness of Christmas
which is hope;
The spirit of Christmas
which is peace;
The heart of Christmas
which is love.
Ada V. Hendricks

Those that can't
endure the bad,
will not live to
see the good.

Cute Pixie!
A bus made to look like a tram. Cool.
I think Pixie has been drinking the Christmas sherry.
Humming and blinking red and green - definitely all that’s needed for a tree to say Christmas wishes! Pats to Pixie!
...never let your light go out.
I like your non-Christmassy Christmas tree.
Pixie sleeps and dreams of catnip.
Cool trolley, and Mr. Gecko already has his holiday colors on. Peace, Aloha, Linda in Kansas
Sweet words from Pixie, Cloudia. ;-)
Hello,
Wonderful post, holidays wishes and photos.
Pixie is always adorable, love the gecko and pretty lights.
I wish you and your much love and happiness this holiday season.
Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, have a great day and a happy weekend. PS, thank you for leaving me a comment.
Cloudia thank you for the blessings. I appreciate it more than you know. I feel like my eye is getting better. I truly love this post and the poem about Christmas. I wish all of that for you as well and the very best 2026.
I love the trolley decked out in holiday light.
Pixie obviously has visions of sugar plums dancing in her head. Will she be able to sleep until the 25th? That is one looong cat nap!
Beautiful and just in case I don't get back to you before, Mele Kalikimaka me ka Hauʻoli Makahiki Hou, and yes I looked it up :) I will be thinking of you over the holidays my dear friend and sending lots of hugs.
Pixie's poem and photo says it all, Cloudia. I liked the quote from Laura Ingalls Wilder, too. Blessings!
Christmas in Hawaii is really special! It’s been a few years since we were there, but it would be great to go back some time, Christmas or not. I always love the fake snow when it feels like my summer dream. And I always love the sunshine.
I looked at the tree and thought when are they going to finish it?
