A CHRISTMAS HOUSE!


I LOVE decorating my home for this CHRISTMAS season! We started a tradition last year with decorating early. We are always gone for half the month of Dec. visiting family so we don't get to enjoy the SPIRIT of CHRISTMAS in our home for very long. My amazingly talented, crafty, perfect sister in law got the idea for the wreath above from good ole' Martha Stewart. We made them together and it turned out beautiful! I can say that because I copied an idea!

Putting up the tree was fun this year.....with Easton helping. He felt so big. Isaac danced around in my tree skirt, aka: vampire cape! It was HISTERICAL! ( But then it usually is with him).





I got this jar at ROSS for $10 bucks! You heard it! I am just going to switch it out through out the year accordingly! I LOVE IT!



HAPPY DECORATING!

That IS pretty early for Christmas, but what a fun excuse to decorate! I can't wait myself! Your house is looking so beautiful and I love the piano and how you hung the stockings on it. Very clever. I really like the wreath too. I may have to make one myself! Seeing John in his scrubs makes me realize how close he actually is to finishing(probably seems like forever to you). Isn't that exciting? Oh, and I can't believe that Leah is having twins again!!!!! love ya!
