The story of one blended, happy family of five.
That's one mom, one dad, two litle boys and a teenage daughter!
IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE!

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

I am so excited about Christmas this year!   Really, I should say I am excited about Christmas every single year but this year I am pretty excited to be spending it in our new house.  We started decorating on Friday evening and we are still working on it now.  I am sure it will take us the rest of the week to finish things up, but it is so much fun! 
The boys really wanted to help Daddy get the tree out of the box and put up! 
 They were so excited!  It is so fun to see Christmas through their eyes.
 Cade couldn't wait!  Seriously, he was jumping up and down from excitement.  It was precious!  I hope they always stay this excited. 
 We have a pre-lit tree and we had some light issues this year.  This is our third or fourth year with this tree, or I don't know maybe have had it longer.  But it was the perfect size in our old house.  It looks small and lost in our new house.  It is going to work this year but next year I am sizing up- maybe a 9 foot tree or 10 foot tree?
 Restringing Lights!

 He couldn't wait for the lights be done
 Little tree that we put in the boys room.  It turned out pretty cute.  I had a whole bin of ornaments for them to choose from and this was what they choose to put on it. 
 Santa waiting by their bedroom door!
 My Christmas plate in the kitchen.  I have had this thing forever and I still love it.
 I have so many of these little trees so I stuck two in the kitchen.  I love the colors on them!
 Our Days Til Christmas board!  I love this little board!
 We don't have a mantel so I had to put our stockings on this table.  I am still working on the look for the table.  I wish I could get my garland to stay up here.  Any ideas?
 My tree... I experimented with the deco mesh this year.  I like it but I wish I was better at putting it on my tree.  More practice I guess! 
 I also had a mishap with my angel and had to search around for another one!  This angel isn't exactly what I wanted but do you have an idea how hard it is to find an angel tree topper?  I could only find those crazy 70's stars!
 Our little basket!  I love this basket - but I especially love the Grinch!
 My favorite wreath EVER!  Larry put this together for me last year and I loved it! 
 My little table with Santa and more of those trees I love! 
I am still adding decor.  But this what I have up already!  I can't wait to see everyone elses Christmas decor!  I need more ideas for my house.
