Sorry for the delay but voting is now open for the 2008 Christmas Tree Decorating Contest.
I wanted to post an organized list of all the entries and a nice fancy poll but the morning sickness is starting to kick in. So Mr. Linky will have to do.
Below are the entrants for the contest. You have until Dec 16th to cast your vote – once per day. Just leave your choice in the comments below and on Dec 17th, I will tally up the counts and announce the winner. Good luck to everyone!

#24, thanks!
24
# 35 gets my vote cause we’re “thick like that”..
cute site and what a great idea!
I am appalled by comment number 221. That was rude, so what if she has more friends than you, shows what kind of person she is.
That being said I vote for#24
i vote for muthering heights, #35
Yes I thought this was a decorating contest not a who has more friends. I looked at each and every one of your tree’s as I was asked to do this by her. She wanted it to be a decorating contest, the thing she loves to do. And that even states that in her blog And I will say she does have my eye on her tree. All of them are beautiful in thier own way. I have never met Lori, I am not a friend just someone who stops by her blog.
I also vote for # 24
#2!!
28. Amy @ Cheeky Cocoa Beans
I am voting for #2!
Robyn says #28
I’m all for #20. Beautiful tree. Besides, you can’t go wrong with Tinkerbell!
#18
Izzy’n Emmy Number 18
Loris tree is really beautiful, as are all the trees, very special. I do agree that voting is a very difficult way to pick a winner, also because someone has to hit ALL the links to even see the other trees and its very time consuming and most will just vote from the blog they came from, rather then go all the way through.
I think its christmas and everyone should be nice.
Im casting vote for #9.
my vote is for #24 Lori Downs. Not just because she is a friends. i have seen the tree in person and can attest its the best tree i have seen yet… beats my charlie brown twig of a tree…
I will vote for #24, Lori Downs. I personally helped her decorate the tree and I know how much time was spent. Careful attention to detail and ever so welcoming!!
Merry Christmas Tis the season
24 Lori Downs
My vote goes to #20 Angie@ 5 vinez monkeys

May I jump in here and say that, having read the blog of Julie at Inmates (the comment #221 mentioned earlier), I am sure that Julie was saying this with a humorous tone!
Y’all have a great day!

Wow! I certainly didn’t mean to offend anyone, I was actually trying to be funny. Actually, Lori and I have talked by e-mail, so you should know there was no intent on my part to be mean or rude. Actually, I think Lori has a lovely tree and aside from that, I think her intentions for the prize are sweet, so I do hope she wins. That being said, I apologize first to Lori if I in anyway offfended you, and then to Kailani for perhaps sending the wrong message on your blog whether intended or not. And, my vote is for Lori #24!!! Happy Holiday, Ya’ll!!!
My vote today is for Juile from inmates!! Shows what kind of people we do have in this world!!! Thank you so much for your kind words!!

#24 my hunny
lovely, your mama would be proud, and no one foot no touch zone at the bottom, You are brave! we have no tree, alas 6 dogs and 13 cats do not make for a viable tree. I would decorate Julie, but she would probably eat the ornaments ir worse!! You don’t have my Hershell ornament? Shame Shame! lol Love to all. Furnace was finally fixed 8 days later just in time for the heat wave!
Great jobs by all…but the vote goes to 14!
No. 24 – Lori Downs because her tree is gorgeous!
