MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!

Once again it is that merry & beautiful time of year where we give gifts & remember that our Savior was born so we could be saved! I LOVE Christmas, it is my absolute favorite time of the year & I always get excited to put up all of the decorations & buy gifts for everyone. This year is extra special for me, because this is the first year I have had my own home to decorate & I am beyond thankful for all of the blessing God has given me. I do not take it for granted because my family has had some really rough times where we were almost homeless & my dad lost his job a couple of times, so every blessing means so much to me. I really enjoyed decorating the house this year, so I want to share my home with you, my awesome xanga family!

Cali says hi! This is the view from our entryway into our living room & here is our tree. I love real trees, but if I can find a fake one that looks this good, I will be sold. The smell is unbeatable though!

I bought these ornaments in Kansas City & I just love them!

I made these wreaths & the kissing ball. The kissing ball is a Victorian tradition & that is where mistletoe originated from.
Ever since I was a little girl, I have loved the Little House on the Prairie books & have always wanted to own them. For my birthday, my family bought me the entire series in hardcover!!! It is one of my most prized possessions & I love them.

Our dining room

I made the napkin holders & the candles as well

I love this bowl, it just makes me happy when the light shines on it in the morning!

And last but not least, the front of our home! I made this garland for $30 bucks & I love that it is real. I am not a fan of fake garland or of lights, so I usually opt for the real stuff if I can afford it.

I pray that you all have the best Christmas & that this new year is the best one yet! I love you all & thank you for taking the time to visit my page, it means so much to me!

Love to you all!
