We decorated our house about 2 weeks ago and finally I remember to load pictures up for you!
Our dining table in the front room
I needed to move one leaning bookshelf away from behind the Christmas tree due to space and i put it next to the dining table (see picture above). Olivia helped me to decorate the tree while the boys got some coffee and hot chocolate from Starbucks.
Next to the door we have a small lit-up tree, too.
These two faux plants hide all the cables from the fishtank and I just put red lights on top of their leaves.
The mantel and the entire shebang. Finally my stockings can be held up by the holders I have since 8 years but the mantels never were the shape that was needed for them!
The garland on the steps to the upstairs bedrooms.
Some close-up pictures of the tree. When I came to America I really disliked the tacky trees full of 'toys' instead of just lights and normal, old-fashioned round ornaments. But now I came to like this 'toy' style since every special ornament has a meaning and you get already your kids some ornaments so when they move out, they already have some ornaments to hang on their tree in their house! And it makes your tree so much more personal than just normal old-fashioned glitter.
