Happy New Year!

Good riddance to 2008! Bring on 2009!

Here are some more pics of our Christmas decorations. This is my favorite display ~ my Precious Moments nativity set. My mom started me out with the basic set and the three wise men, and my sister-in-love scours e-bay every year to find good deals on additional pieces. This year I was surprised to receive the goat (very rare!), the pig and the bunnies. Once Ladybug comes home, I think that we will use the nativity set as an advent calendar and put one piece out a night until Christmas. Just a few more angels and we'll have plenty to do that!



Hope everyone has a safe and Happy New Year!

Christmas Decor ~ #1

Well, since this site is about sharing, I think I'll post a series of our Christmas decor. Not many folks will get to see it this year IRL, so I'll share it virtually.

Tonight I'll post some outside pics. Sorry so fuzzy, but you can't really use a flash and get the twinkling effect. We bought new LED lights this year for the house and tree. It took a little getting used to the white light vs. yellow lights, but I really like it. The blinkie snow men are new this year. They are my favorite!

And, we timed it just perfectly. The day we put up the outdoor decorations was the one day that we had snow that actually stuck! You can see it in the pics! Adds just the right finishing touch!

Enjoy! :D
