My Halls are Decked

December 17th, 2007

Hi everyone!  Welcome to my home.  Unfortunately, this year, it’s not as Christmas-y as I would have liked, but that’s okay, because that’s less to take down after the holidays! 

Let’s hop to it.

Here is a shot of the front of my house.

It’s lovely, isn’t it?  All that snow!  I sure hope it melts soon!

This is one of my favorite holiday items, I just love this wreath.  I’ve taken two pictures for you, one with flash, one without.

Here is our wall o’ stockings.  It’s very exciting.

And this is our Nativity Set, which is also one of my favorite things to unpack each year.

This little tree, is my Christmas Card Tree.  Thanks to BooMama for this delicious idea.  Speaking of delicious, did you happen to bring some cookies with you?  I love cookies.

Here’s a bookshelf.

There are no pictures of my kitchen, because it’s a mess.  Just picture a Christmas cookie jar, a few candles and green beans and cheerios stuck to the floor. 

Seriously, you didn’t bring cookies?

And here is our tree.  It’s a nine footer and a little too big for my liking.  I don’t think I’ll be "hosting" this tree for too many years.  It’s just too large.  Please note the special placement of the candy canes.  The children were in charge of those.  Typically, with my personality type, I would have changed how they placed them and put them on the tree very methodically and equally spaced.  This year, I left them, as is.

Well, there you have it.  I hope you enjoyed the tour.  I leave you with a very special picture of the children taking their Christmas card picture.  It was a ton of fun…for them.

    What a beautiful wreath. And I like all that snow in the picture but I think the one of your children steals the show.
