Add a photo of your decorated Christmas Tree to our gallery!
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas. Well, actually, with no snow on the ground, it's not looking as much like Christmas as some of us might like. But we here at Tewksbury Patch plan to do something about that. We're putting together a gallery of decorated Christmas Trees but we need your help. We've started the ball rolling with a photo of the lovely tree in the lobby of the Tewksbury Police Headquarters. Now it's your turn! Upload a photo of your decorated Christmas Tree to our gallery. If we get enough, I'll be putting together a musical slide show of all the the tres to celebrate Christmas week!

These days it seems that there is a bit of competition when it comes to holiday traditions. Without a doubt, Santa is still the number one man when it comes to Christmas but, alas, there is a new kid in town when it comes to getting attention. Lately it seems that someone a little smaller than Santa has also moved into the hearts of children. That someone is The Elf on the Shelf. As the mom of a teenager I have no experience with this little elf. As a matter of fact I had to enlist the help of a friend to learn exactly what this new tradition is all about.
