Christmas Decor At Our House
This year, I became obsessed with live wreaths. They look so much better than fake ones and smell wonderful. I put one in our den and one in our dining room. I did put a fake wreath on the front door because Home Depot was out of the one I wanted so I just used what I had. I also decided this year not to put wreaths on all the windows outside. It takes too long!!!!! They all need new bows and after making eight bows yesterday at Tara's, I am worn out! So, no wreaths on the windows at our house this year. Plus, due to my recent obesession with live wreaths, I just can't bear the fake ones. They just aren't as pretty. So we just have one wreath and a garland on the front door. Steven's job is the lights outside. He puts lights in two trees in our yard then puts other stuff I would rather do without in our yard. He has so much fun doing this I just can't tell him how I don't like the extra yard art such as the Alabama Elephant that lights up. Anyway, we started a new tradition last year by putting a live tree in our den. We hang all of our sentimental ornaments on it such as stuff we made as kids and all of my Barbie ornaments. Then, we put all of what Steven calls fancy ornaments on the fake tree in the living room. And, the real tree has colored lights all over it. The fake tree has read berry lights and white lights. I had to put the fake tree in an akward place this year because my piano will be delievered next weekend!!!! I can't wait!!!!! Here are the pics. I'll post more of the outside at night when I get a chance. Merry Christmas!!!!!
