Christmas Galore

I love Christmas time! The decorations, the shopping, the lights (or quee quee's as my family calls them) it's just such a festive time of year!

I love finding just the right gift for everyone on my list, sure you can give me a suggestion, but I think I can find the perfect gift for you without the suggestion. I've been doing some holiday decorating around the house and will share pictures as soon as I take them.  I've gotten a lot of good decorating ideas from other blogs I like to read. I SO wish I could have made this wreath:

But we have a storm door on the front and I don't think it'd fit :( maybe next year when we have a bigger house I'll have somewhere to hang it!

In case you want to see some of the festive holiday decor I've put up around our house, here ya go!

Here's our miniature tree! It's all we have room for now, I cannot wait to decorate a full tree someday!


And here's our hand-me-down nativity set, Thanks Mom!!! (Joseph's head is staying on just fine :)
Dave added some additional characters to the manger this year. What you don't remember the Sooners being there?


The beautiful mantle with our awesome new stockings! Thanks Rex and Opal! You guys rock!



And our annual Christmas Poinsetta from Master Gardner Rex! I jazzed it up a bit with some ornaments, it's our new dining room centerpiece! (which usualy means it's up against the window to wrap presents on the table)


I plan to buy some cute christmas decor when it all goes 80% off at Hobby Lobby after Christmas. So next year we'll have more to show!
Happy Holidays!
