Christmas Tour

This is just a few examples of why I haven't been bloggin a lot lately. I would like to take you on a "tour" of my home decorated for Christmas...


This is the tree in my bedroom. It is decorated in burgundy & gold and has an ornament from every year that my husband & me have been together. We get an ornament engraved every year. Believe it or not, this little tree has 17 engraved ornaments along with all the other ornaments on it...


Here is my Christmas village...




Here are a few odd & ends decorations I have...












This was my grandmother's nativity scene...



This is another nativity scene I have. My husband liked the way this picture turned out with the shadow effect.



This is the tree I have in my kitchen. It is perfect with the sugar cookie & gingerbread ornaments. Not to mention the candy canes and a lollipop for a tree top.


These "old fashion" books and toys are on the table with the "gingerbread" tree...




This is my tree in the living room. It is made up of old fashion snowmen, pinecones, berries, red birds and snowflakes. I call it my "wildlife" tree.






I hope you enjoyed my Christmas tour. It is hard to get a good picture of a Christmas tree. If you leave the flash on, it fades out the lights, but if you turn off the flash, you can barely see the ornaments. I tried to compromise and do a little of both. I also have a wreath on both doors and a plain evergreen wreath with red bows on every window. I love Christmas and now I have time to set back and enjoy!
