Since a grand total of about 6 people will see our holiday decor in person this year, I decided I’d better share some pictures on the ol’ blog. Gotta make it worth the hours of setup, right? 🙂
What you can’t see in this picture is the pile of baby gear and toys behind the couch. You better believe my living room never looks like this anymore!
Can you spot the little white dog?
Last year I started taking all the cute Christmas cards from friends and family and hanging them over our entertainment center. Twine, clothespins and Christmas cards…ta-da!
No bows…no tags…easier to haul back to Kansas in the back of a pickup truck.
Thank you Pinterest 🙂
Two of my favorite Christmas decorations:
1. New stockings!
2. An old sled that I got from a family friend’s garage sale. Mittens included 🙂
Yes, I bought an Elf on the Shelf even though he means nothing to Arden at this point. I just couldn’t resist! We showed him to my niece on FaceTime and she was in shock because he looked just like her elf, Stewart. She came to the conclusion that they must be twin brothers.
Obviously.
Our dining room hasn’t changed much from last year, but I guess that means I liked it! (Or that I’m just lazy)…
Arden’s room got a little taste of Christmas too.
This tree is perfect for the nursery…
And since this was the first time I’d had my camera out in weeks, I thought I’d better get some shots of my two favorite girls 🙂
Happy baby!
I could kiss these cheeks all day long…
And I do!
“Since your feet are covered, let me clean those hands for you…”
I can’t wait for her first Christmas!

Love all this!! Are Jimmy, Charlie and I counted in the 6 people who get to see the decor or will it be boxed up by the time we get there!?!
Vanessa says
Yes, you're definitely included! Seems like a good excuse to keep it up longer 🙂
Jessica says
Pretty!! I love that last picture of Arden with the Christmas tree in the background! So cozy 🙂
