Getting ready for the Holidays

Well, Thanksgiving is over and the merry holidays of December are well on there way.  We celebrate Christmas in our home and the children are all geared up and excited to be seeing decorations and lights appearing all over the place.  I should have been more on the ball with decorating our home last weekend but I just wasn't.  However, I have managed to place a few festive ornaments around our home.  I saw a great picture somewhere on the Internet of tree ornament chandeliers and thought it was a great idea.  So great, in fact that I had to make my own.  I had pictured them hung about the house differently in my head but in the end this seemed to work. 



 

 

Our bay window still needs some TLC but for now I think this will do.  The kids are happy and really, when it comes to holiday decorating, they are the ones I aim to please.  This weekend we plan to do the tree and of course we will add festiveness to the rest of the house.



 
We still have much more to do.  I wish we were already done but isn't that what makes up at least half the holiday is preparing for it?

Do you decorate for the holidays? Is it all done? And what is your favorite part?

Our Home for Christmas 2011

This holiday season we decided to switch things up a bit.  My husband thought it would be a nice idea to have a cozy little Christmas morning and thought that it would work best in the dining room.  Soooo, we moved the living room to the dining room and the dining room to the living room.  It definitely gives a cozy feel to the living room ( perhaps a little too cozy!!:)) I definitely think that it looks cute and that it will be perfect for a warm and cheery Christmas morning.

A corner in the dining room.  You can see my three year old's home made who house and the three older kids "second chance cans" for Christmas.


All of these photos were taken at night.  I'm hoping for a bright and sunny Christmas morning. 

Happy Holidays to all!!
