Come in through the front door...
and into the brightly lit foyer.
On the right is the schoolroom. This tree is the one the kids put all their ornaments on. Year after year. : )
From here, you can see into Steve's den...
where he has his own tree complete with antlers and a camo tree skirt!
The foyer tree stays up all year long to welcome visitors into our home...
and is decorated with a rag tied garland made from fabrics of all our favorite holidays. : )
Down the hall is our family room. The room where we gather every single day to talk and laugh and watch television. And just be. : )
And from here you can see into the hearth room and kitchen...
where we sit and read and watch the fire on those cold winter nights. : )
And right across is my kitchen...
where the baking magic happens. : )
This little table is nearby, all decorated with our favorite Santa treasures...
and the beverage station is close as well. That rocker there...Steve bought me that years ago for Christmas, before we were even married. He said it was for the country home we would have someday. : )
The hot cocoa station here is used every single day. : )
And...my table. The one I dreamed of when I was young...a table for my family to gather around every evening for dinner. And that is exactly what we do.
My potato and onion cupboard is nearby...with my Grandma Mil's handwritten recipe for the pumpkin pie I make every Thanksgiving. : )
Upstairs, my bedroom has touches of Christmas too...
because it is the most wonderful time of the year. : )
Thank you for visiting, my friends...
Id love to see your Christmas home too! : )
Merry Christmas!
