christmas decorating...

yesterday i was in full blown decorating mode for christmas, sans the annoying christmas music, and instead football playing on the television. almost all of my christmas shopping is complete so i was even able to wrap all my presents and place them under the tree. now let's just hope the cat doesn't eat the ribbon off them!

the paperwhites have bloomed...


the snow globes & music boxes unpacked...


the stockings have been hung...


and the tree has been decorated...


of course i couldn't resist the photo opt with 'the kids'. it's rare that i get them all in one shot too...



it was an exhausting day, clearly...

MERRY CHRISTMAS!
