It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas

As promised, here are some pictures of my Christmas decorations. Unfortunately, they are not the greatest pictures. We've had grey sky's for several days here, so I haven't had great lighting for taking these pictures. I have two of these quirky little snowmen. The other one did not photograph well, I'll have to try again when the lighting is better. She has a red coat, white collar and green hat. They sit on either side of our television in the living room.


Since I don't have a mantle, I've hung the stockings on the bookcases that sit on either side of the television console. The green stocking photographed much better. Just like the snowman, these two are on the side closest to the window.


Not a great photo, but you get the idea.


Here's my table full of little Christmas trees. I added the button tree and the feather tree this year. I think I need one more...5 would be better!


Here's the whole table as it appeared this weekend. Notice the remote control helicopter....belongs to Shawn of course. I told him the helicopter did not fit with the Christmas display and he gave me some long winded story about how Santa needs to modernize and give up the reindeer in exchange for a helicopter.....can you feel my pain? I have since replaced the helicopter with a vase full of glass ornaments.


Here's my altered star card holder hung up on the inside of our front door. Sorry for the glare...there was no way to avoid flash photography on this one as our entry was pretty dark. I don't have any cards in it yet. I've only received two cards so far, both from friends in scrapbook land and they are both sitting with my address book and boxes of cards I need to send out soon....


I'm hoping to get the tree decorated soon and than I can post pictures of that. I also need to work on some decorations in our bedroom. We'll see what gets accomplished this week!
