Welcome to our home at Christmas!
Pregnant girl was too tired to get out the real camera this year. The iPhone seemed like a good idea, so excuse the phone-quality pics!
These three Santas are new to us this year. They belonged to Wesley's grandmother and I have always loved them. Now they sit on our shelves.
Love this little reindeer I found this year. Although, I'm not sure how long he'll last. A certain three year old thinks it's his horse to play with.
We went with our fake tree this year since we all had a stomach virus, and then Wesley got the flu. We took the easy way out. It's beautiful either way though!
Love our stockings up there. I can't believe that next year we'll have FOUR hanging from the mantle.
Throughout the year my letters spell "LOVE", but I switch it up to "NOEL" at Christmas. We got a new china hutch this fall, and I finally have a really good spot for my Willow Tree nativity set.
This nativity is probably my favorite decoration!
Love looking at our Christmas cards. We've got some beautiful friends and family!
I made this felt tree for Eli last year. He loves to take things off the tree and rearrange them. Thanks, Pinterest!
Love my chalkboard and Christmas swag (which my husband finds it hilarious that it's called a swag). Obviously I didn't get the teacher/chalkboard handwriting gene!
Love our Auburn tree. Eli helped decorate this one, if you can't tell from looking at the bottom, but I don't have the heart to rearrange it! : ) He's so proud that he could fit four ornaments on one branch, ha!!
Eli's tree
This was a few weeks ago. I heard something going on in his room, so I went to check. Eli had gotten Wesley's tripod and his Big Bird camera, and was taking pictures of the Christmas decorations in his room. Melted my heart! I love that boy so much!
Wesley's grandmother bought him a fire house Christmas village set years ago. She was famous for ordering things and they KEPT COMING. We were receiving Christmas village pieces for the better part of a year. We always got a good laugh over that with her. Eli's so proud to have this village in his room. Next year I may create some "snow" to put down around it, but for now it's perfect. It has the softest glow at night. Perfect for my little man's room!
My boys before church last week in front of our carport snowman. Who knows where his scarf is! (I obviously have it all together this year....)
The outside view....
We're no Griswalds, but we do add a little more each year! : )
Thanks for stopping by. From our home to yours,
Merry Christmas!!!
