It's Christmas time AGAIN...already??


I don't know about you , but I feel like someone stole the past year from me and gave me
another Christmas in it's place! The older I get the years just seem to fly by.  In all reality
we all know that there are 24 hours in a day, 7 days in a week and 52 weeks in a year, but
EVERY YEAR...but it sure seems to go faster to me. I just don't get it. 


I found this wreath on clearance this summer. I think technically it is a garland that
is rolled up, but I left it as is because I love the shape of it for a wreath.
I added the pine cone spray and greenery.



I have shared this picture with you before, but I love the sparkly garland that I added to it for the holidays.




The above candle-holders are another item that I picked up after Christmas one year at about 90% off.
They came from JoAnn Fabric.
Perfect sweater design and WHITE...does it get much better than that? :)


I have a thing for vintage silver ornaments and have quite a stash of them.
The older... the better.




I get these WONKY trees out every year and just laugh.
I call them my DR SUESS trees! haha!

They are the first trees I made with paper and I wasn't bright enough to realize the center
 wire or whatever you use, needs to be sturdy to actually stand up straight.

I LOVE them though.

You can move them this way and that way to your hearts desire. lol




Another TJ Maxx clearance find above...his and hers pillow for $12.








I hope you enjoyed the mini tour through my home this year. I could photograph much more, but
the lighting here stinks today so I quit while I was ahead. Also, I don't think you want to see
wrapping paper and trinkets all over the place. I do have it confined at this point to my dining
room table and love seat beside it, but it is still looking rather unruly.

Blessed Christmas to each and every one of you!!

Jesus is the reason for the season...

CELEBRATE!

Will it ever stop??


We have had so much snow this year that there are days I wonder if it will ever stop.
Seriously!

But, it does make for some gorgeous pictures.  Last week we had amazing frost that covered all
 the trees and everything else in site.  I didn't even realize it was this gorgeous out until I had to
 run uptown.  As soon as I got home I ran inside to get my camera and shoot some photos.
I didn't stay out long because it was way below zero and my fingers were about froze off
 even with gloves on.

I did add some sparkles to the photo above to enhance it. :)

Enjoy ~


















I hope you enjoyed my winter wonderland photos, but I am praying that Spring is just around
the corner. :)
