Christmas time has arrived at our house! It has been so good to have a break from college, we have taken a few weeks off from homeschooling as well. I have used the extra time to get ready for the holidays.. We all went out and picked a Real Live tree this year, we got a HUGE one too, 10 ft'er it goes all the way to our ceiling. I love it, and I love the wonderful smell of a real tree.

This is the entry table this year & the Christmas train my mom gave me fits right on the shelf along with my lighted Santa lantern.

This is the piano top in our room with snowmen and snowflake lights a glow (these are the new LED lights, I am not wild about them)... a vintage Santa found a home in my master bath

My kitchen counter has a super sweet pics of my boys in a Santa frame beside a Christmas cookie jar

above the sink some country angles have landed. Merry Christmas!!
