Welcome to our new blog!

I'm so excited! I have entered 'blog world'! I have been reading several blogs for the last few months and have wanted to create my own, but never did before today! I thought I'd start by participating in Boomama's Christmas Tour of Homes! I loved seeing everyone else's homes, and thought I'd participate this year too! Here are my kids~ They are so excited...........school's out for two weeks! And Christmas is just days away. Tonight they are watching Polar Express and eating some popcorn before bed. I love this time of year~

This is our fireplace. Ok, I'm in Florida, we don't have a real one, but I always wanted a mantel. Hubby saw one at Sam's and bought it for me! I love to decorate the mantel for every season. My dream is to have a real stone fireplace one day! Now my only 'challenge' is to find a way to display my Christmas cards?? Any suggestions??

I love this piece! It's in our family room and when I light the candles, there is a glow around the corner.

This is our entry way. I love this area too because I can go all out here and decorate for each season. Fall is my absolute favorite season, but Christmas is a close second in regards to decorating!

Our Christmas Tree! Yes, the ornaments are a bit weak this year. It's mostly handmade or family ornaments right now. I think it's more because I am getting tired of all the other ones that I have.

Ahhh, my dining room! Another favorite room in my house. I saw on several of the tour homes that you all were decorating the lighting in your rooms. So I thought I'd try my hand at it too. I actually really like it! Thanks for that wonderful idea!

I hope you enjoyed a little peek into what our home is like. I have loved looking at all the ideas from the other homes and can't wait to incorporate them into my decorating next year!

Have a great night~
