Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas!

Happy Christmas Eve, everyone!

Just a quick picture post and I'm off to join the family for some stories and games....and more food! 

Wanted to show you a few of my Christmasy nooks and crannies in the house--just a little peek here and there!  My favorite thing during the holidays is having all--or most--of the regular lights off, with just the little fairy lights placed on trees and mantles all over the house to light our way...that's how I wanted to show you my home...

My green tinsel tree in the bedroom hallway...love how it sparkles and shines!








My pink tinsel tree...this one just makes me smile!








My small...but growing...waterglobe collection...



My white kitchen tree...



Our main Christmas tree--I LOVE this angle!



...and of course, the stockings...



Thanks for coming to visit!

Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!

  1. Merry Christmas Julie! I hope you all have a wonderful day celebrating the birth of the Saviour together! Loved seeing all your Christmas trees and they are exactly as I would have pictured them, beautiful and sparkly and filled with magic! What a beautiful nativity also. May your day tomorrow be filled with joy and peace and love. xxoo

  11. I already loved you forever, and still will even if I don't win the Robin's Egg Blue stuff! Your house looks absolutely beautiful!! I didn't make a very good effort. I really don't like the house we are renting, so it's hard to care for it. We don't want to buy until we have tenure, so this is my house. I put out about half of the stuff-maybe next year I'll do better.
