Deck the Halls

I can hardly believe December is already here - has this year flown by or what?? I am in the Christmas spirit - playing Christmas music and watching Christmas movies. And to top it all off, we have SNOW! Yes, it came last Saturday - quite a bit, actually. It is so beautiful and makes it feel so much more "Christmasy"!


Our church looking beautiful in the snow


Making some cappuccino this morning - trying to get some of the chill out of my bones

Our Christmas decorations, ready to be put in their proper places






Our stockings

So, all decorations are up except our tree, which we will be putting up sometime this week. The house is so pretty and cozy now!

Oh, the snow looks great!! It's great when it's all cloudy like that!! We got some snow yesterday, but it didn't stick around. :-( It's always a process getting up the decorations!
We are having lighting issues. :-)

Hey Tori,
Looks like y'all are having fun! We're going to put up the decorations and all next weekend (I think). I have to fix hot chocolate a lot in the winter, mostly because my hands just about freeze...it doesn't really get *that* cold outside way down here. :-)

It's my pleasure. I love doing this kind of stuff, and helping Nikki has been a blast.
Tell her I'm still looking for her new backround and a kit to match for after the holidays. She want's a hockey theme, so I want to find that can be all year round.
If you want a header, just let me know. I go on break next week and will have tons of time to work on stuff. =)
