{ CHRISTMAS DECOR 2020 }

 So the holidays were a quick blur (am I alone here?) and having no snow made it just seem well, not as Christmasy if that makes any sense. 

But to help combat that - we decorate!! 

I should add, I LOVE LOVE LOVE Christmas decor, it does seem to make everything around just a little more cheery. But, I also am a traditionalist when it comes to Christmas colors. Don't get me wrong I love a good neutral decor and have seen so many bloggers/Instagrammers with gorgeous neutral holiday decor. But there is just something about red and white that just gives that extra POP to our home. My home is a neutral palette for most of the year so why not go all out for Christmas. And yes, I even decorate our 1 lone bathroom. 

I DIY flocked my Christmas tree 3 years ago and I still LOVE it! I bought it from Wal-Mart back in 2008 on clearance, she has been a great tree for our small living room. She's skinny, tall and we have thoroughly enjoyed it every single year.

Wool Felt Balls from my Etsy shop are a must on our tree!

Ahhh these Felt balls are my favorite!

{ Happy Christmas }

Christmas went off without a hitch.

Santa came and he has some serious gift tag game. ;)

All the kids had fun and got things on their lists. 

Christmas is my favorite holiday especially with kids at home.

There is just a special feeling and spirit about Christmas

when there are little ones about. 

Lego's, books, tracing boards, clothes, cars, card games, video games,

gun accessories, iPod's, backpacks... 

Yeah, we had a great Christmas.

Christmas is just around the corner, 

here is my keeping it real holiday photo. 

Sadly I didn't take many photos this year of my holiday decor. 

You gotta love my American flag still up on my cupboard. :)

 Finally did Christmas cards for the first time in several years.

 Lots of Felt ball orders to be made and lots of custom orders like these 2 Merry garlands.

I love my little holiday helper. 

Hes into using his pants pockets lately and it's pretty

much the cutest thing I've ever seen.

Sorry for the quality.

{ Turkey Day 2015 in Washington }

I seriously can't believe this is the only photo I took of Thanksgiving Dinner 2015.

I'm grateful for Thanksgiving, it makes me reflect on all the things that

I have in my life. Healthy kids, a warm bed to rest my head at night.

Food on our table, a reliable car to take us where ever we want. 

Family beside us, a religion to practice freely. 

I am truly thankful for all my blessing big or small. 

We went after dinner to Aunt Geraldine's & Uncle Wendell's, to pick up a stove for mom.

Hers was having some serious issues. While there I took these 2 photos 

of Jentry & Ledger. Tugs at my heart strings to see these two together.

My 1st baby and my last baby together. 

Sometimes, the days go too fast.

We need to hang onto the simple memories like these.
