{Christmas at our place}


So, I may have mentioned it,
but I really love Christmas.
And can you believe it's only 11 days away?!

This year has been especially exciting,
since I get to celebrate with my new husband.
We got to go pick out a tree,
string lights, hang the ornaments...
so much fun!

our little dining room
{the lighting is terrible, but the decorations are adorable!}
table runner & snowflakes from Target
mason jars from my collection
candy canes from Walmart
braided yarn garland made by me

& our tree!!
I absolutely love it. :)

some of our special ornaments

we also got a little baby tree...

stockings from Target

nativity from cbd

I love coming downstairs every morning to see our pretty tree.
All the decorations make it seem so festive.
And celebrating our Savior's birth is an amazing thing.

What is your favorite Christmas tradition?
I'd love to hear about it!

linking up with Krystina & the Nester!

Love it dear! My apartment is decorated but it is a total mess right now. I have a lot of favorite traditions, but my favorite that is just between me and the hubs is hanging up a broken ornament. Sounds silly, but right after we were married we got in 2 car wrecks (one on the way home from the honeymoon, the other on the day we got the car back from the shop!). We had a nice "just married" car ornament from his parents and sure enough... we totaled that too. We decided to keep it to remember the occasion. I hope its a tradition that lives on!
