It's Beginning to Look a lot Like Christmas!


 I love this time of year and decorating for Christmas. We stayed home the day after Thanksgiving and got all of our decorations put up. It was fun to get to use all our decorations this year since last year we were in our little apartment and didn't do a whole lot of decorating.
 
I love having our front window in the dining room so you can see the small tree from the road.
 

 I guess we will need to find a matching stocking holder and I'll have to make a new stocking for next year :) I hadn't thought of that until I got them put up and then I realized next year we will have four stockings.....so exciting!
 My favorite Willow Tree Angel manger scene. Love that my mother and mother-in-law help add a new piece to it each year. It makes it really special.



These are some of my most favorite ornaments.
 Samson's paw print....my very favorite ornament that I will ALWAYS cherish.

 This ornament was given to us after we got engaged.
 This ornament was made by a sweet friend of ours that cut up our wedding invitations and curled the paper and put it in the ornament. LOVE THIS!
 Reminds me of the good ole pom days at UAFS!
 This was a gift to us after we got married.
And this was the first ornament on our tree after we got married. So fitting for Aaron.
