It's Christmastime!

We've finally finished getting all of our Christmas stuff together! We LOVE having a house to decorate this year! I only wish that the season was a little bit longer so we could enjoy it more, but we're just soaking it all in right now. We're so thankful for both of our moms who donated a whole bunch of their old Christmas stuff so we could fill our house with fun decor. I would say about 75% of our decorations are hand-me-downs and we just love them!


OUTSIDE:

I made a few adjustments to my ornament wreath from a few years ago, but it's surprisingly still holding up pretty well!

The snowman and tree have since been moved, but we didn't take a pic of them in their new place

When we first saw this house, I told Grant I wanted to put a tree up in that window above the door. There's a landing inside for it to sit on and I couldn't be more happy with the way it turned out!

INSIDE:

I made this advent calendar last year, but we haven't been good about using it :( Hopefully next year when Emily's older we'll be better!

my mom was getting rid of her nutcracker collection and we just happened to have the perfect place for them!

send us your Christmas cards! They will be on display for everyone to see!

olive wood nativity I got in Jerusalem

we still need a tree topper... that's the one thing we're still missing. And our tree looks a little bit silly because we can't put ornaments in Emily's reach :)

all ready for Christmas!

We really can't wait for Christmas to get here! We're so excited to see Emily's reaction to everything! We hope all of you have a very Merry Christmas as well!!
