I had planned on having my house completely decorated for Christmas before December this year. That was the plan - it didn't happen. I started off good, it wasn't even the end of December and the boys set up their Christmas tree in the family room. I put on the advent stockings and hung the Santa clothes garland, then the boys put on the rest of the decorations however they wanted. It is always such a cute little tree and the boys love it.

Getting a decent picture of these two is proving more and more difficult! |
It was about two weeks later before I was able to get the rest of the decorations up. I gave myself a deadline as I wanted it done before I had my VT luncheon on December 9th. So late for me, but we've been crazy busy - so it is what it is!
I did a few things differently this year - I added class ball ornaments to the top of the hutch. I think next year I'll get a string of lights to go up there as well.
I changed what I put on the shelf in the dining room - I love how the tins look!
Jason and Ashton surprised me with lights on the staircase. They were busy decorating while I was teaching.

I think this is my favorite vignette in the house - it's the first thing you see when you walk in! |
I love Christmas and the house feels warm and cozy. Now to finish shopping and baking and I'll be all ready for Christmas!
I like the lights on the banister. I think I am almost done then I remember something. Mostly I have been forgetting stockings this year. I guess we will see what is accomplished Christmas morning:)
