Last year I went all out in the Christmas Décor.  I kid you not.  Every inch of this house was covered in Christmas and it drove me crazy.  I felt like the walls were closing in on me and I couldn’t clean anything.  Since I have multiple shedding animals, the ability to clean up easily ranks very high on my allergic-to-living-things list…… So this year, I took it down quite a few notches.

After:

The girls spent an afternoon decorating the tree.  Jules wanted to know about each and every ornament that she pulled out so we had a good reminiscing session.  The saying curiosity killed the cat was made specifically for Jules.

The dining room is definitely where the action is this year.

The girls have the Nativity Set on the picture window ledge, they spend time every day rearranging the figurines.  today they are in a circle around the manger.  My mom also gifted us her vintage ceramic light up tree.

Ummmmm…..I just realized it’s 9 days till Christmas.  What?!  How did that happen?  insert smart ass comment here
