One of the many cool things about having a blog is the ability to look back on events of the previous years. Let me tell you, it’s a great resource when you forget how you decorated your dining room the year before!
This year we updated our tree decor and location. I love the way it turned out.
Christmas 2010: hidden in the corner…

2011: Right in the heart of things with a new look…
Oh, and a new camera. Makes all the difference 🙂


I realize this ornament doesn’t really fit in, but it just wouldn’t be Christmas without it. Apparently I’ve always been destined to be a Pi Phi 🙂

Here’s some other decor from around the house…

Last weekend we had a progressive Christmas dinner with our friends down here…so people actually got to see our decorations for once! It was a great time and so much fun to see everyone’s homes all lit up for the holidays.
19 day til Christmas!

You did that all for us, didn't you? Aw, you shouldn't have… okay, yes you should have. 2 days (well 3 for me)!!
Well, I love everything of course, but my faves:
1. Those gift tags – LOVE.
2. Burlap garland…we are the same page my friend…I will will have a photo to share from KS soon!
Adorable table. 🙂 Especially love the red scalloped chargers – Where did you get those?!
