I love decorating for Christmas! With Christmas comes a feeling of warmth, togetherness,and love. I love the lights, the stockings, the reds, the greens, and dim glow of candlelight against glass.
This year I finally got my stockings embroidered with our names and since we don't have a fireplace, the stockings hung from a table in our living room. I scattered candles throughout our home and decorated the banister with lights and garland.
I got the boys a special nativity set of their own because they were playing with my very fragile one, and it was a hit. If you look closely I love how Kaleb made all the animals, Joseph, Mary and the
Wisemen gather around baby Jesus in the manager...so precious. I adorned our kitchen cabinets with many cards from friends and family. I love getting cards in the mail at Christmas and hearing how well everyone is doing. This year we also were introduced to our very own elf that kept watch over the boys for Santa this holiday season. Kaleb lovingly named him
Rumpel!
Kaleb made many fun art projects at school and we did some together at home and they hung in our home over the holiday season as well. I just love Christmas and look forward in the years to come adding to my decoration collection and someday having a home that is completely decked out for Christmastime. I want the boys to grow up remembering how Christmas was a special time in our house full of love, traditions, and ultimately a time to celebrate the birth of Jesus and give back to others!
