Christmas Countdown, Its ON!

Yikes, why is it Christmas sneaks up on us every year. A week ago, My house wasn't decorated, Only a handful of Christmas cards came, and the thought of putting up a tree and decorating exhausted me. Tonight I sit in a home fully decorated, gifts bought and wrapped, holiday goodies made. Many cards came this week, 95% are picture cards, which are my favorite, I keep them every year to compare the new ones to the past.  Kids grow up too fast :(.    I am officially ready for Christmas to come.  Of course ALL my shopping is not done, but its a short work week so what is left doesn't stress me.  As much as I love living decorations, im starting to give way to an artificial tree.  Did I really just say that?  These are some of my favorites around the house.

Yes, my bathroom has a tree


My Son gave me this years ago

My twister quilt I didnt get quilted before
 Christmas, next year I guess.

I Love little stockings


Simple pinwheels made out of fabric
decorate my tree

Of Course I have an angel bear on the top of
my tree
