Christmas Tour 2016

Another year gone and a new one right around the corner, 

where does time go?

I sound more and more like my Mother each year!

Here's a tour of some of our favorite memory makers 

in our home during this Magical Season

Our Tiny Tree 

displaying mini's we've collected over the years

S'mores Tree

From the front door through the entry into the living room,

 I glued Snowflakes together for a garland.

Thanks Dollar Tree :) 

 Viewing from the other side.

I wish I was able to get them higher.

But we all are having some medical issues,

(no climbing ladders)

The beautiful Ornament Wreath I won 

from ImagiMeri's a few years ago.

I finally got ALL of Santa's Reindeer this year.

He now has enough to fly his sleigh!

(did you notice I actually got his sleigh behind and 

not in front of the reindeer this year! Yay for me!)

I found more pieces of Grandma's quilt so I was able to make Izzy and Brandon their very own Heirloom Christmas Stockings :)

 The Tree

I used Mom's mercury garland on the tree this year.

You can see it peek out here and there. 

First time ever ~ I have to say, this is where it belongs 

from now on ♥

Izzy's footprints from last year!

Angel Topper

 Grandma's crocheted bell ♥

Dad's old pocket watch set to just a few minutes 

before midnight on Christmas Eve.

Under the tree

 Mr. Penguin guards outgoing mail

 I made a "Christmas Beach Tree" for the bathroom

 this year using mostly things from around the house.

I love it!

YAY I finally got the outside lights up!!

And lots of snowflakes and icicles

 After living in Alaska for 3 years, 

we really miss the snow.

So come Christmas, Snowflakes take center stage.

icicles too

Wishing you and yours a Magical Memory 

Making Merry Christmas!
