My little "mister" is 2 1/2 and this year he is truly enjoying all the lights and decor of the season. It really makes it so much more fun! Every where we go he is looking for "Christmas". Which usually compasses of Christmas trees and Lights decorating homes. He has learned a few songs....all by himself I might add (very proud momma). So very often when we are out shopping he will burst into "Zingle bells, zingle bells, all the way" or call out "Happy Holidays". I love it!
I decorated our little home. I have come to realize I am very much a traditionalist. I love reds and golds. So that is the base of my colors. As always, I have enjoyed decorating and creating as I go. I just wish Christmas celebrating was two months instead of one!!
Our tree. I love white and twinkling lights. The glow in the living room at night is so peaceful and festive.
Once again my fireplace is the main focal point. I love it!
Stockings hung by the chimney with care.
I reused this picture frame from my Fall/Harvest decor. I carefully laid red tissue paper as the background. Then I bought an adorable gift bag as the picture. It turned out great! Plus I didn't have to print out anything. I considered cutting off the front of the bag so it would lay flatter in the frame. However I was being a bit lazy and didn't. It still looks great but if you want a more polished look, take time to cut the front of the bag off.
Did you see my little nativity set? That is only actually apart of a much bigger and magnificent decorated set that belonged to my mom. She gave it to me for my first "married" Christmas. I have always loved it and spending the time to put it out with her. I wish I had more space for all the pieces but at least I can put the most important part out! So Thankful for the birth of Jesus Christ! He is the reason not just for the season but for every day and moment of my life.
