More Christmas Spirit.......

 The Snowman ornament with all my grandkids name on it......so far. I have a feeling that sometime in the near future there will be two MORE to add to it!

 A few random close up shots of the ornaments and decorations on our tree-since most of them are newly bought. We had limited space when we moved over here, and we only was able to bring a few of our most precious ones along.

 The gold reindeer was bought at the Asheville North Carolina Farmers Market on a trip to the Biltmore House one Christmas Season! All the kids was with me!

another of the reindeer. ....and one of the new ones we bought!

 Our Initial ornament....Silver with red stones on the side. I LOVE this ornament- but its soooo heavy!

 Can you tell the flying reindeers are one of my favs? LOL

 My husband says our tress look like Santa AND the elves threw up all over it...in a good kinda way.

Wait...what?....LOL

 Paul doesn't really like Blue on a tree, and generally, I agree, but a TOUCH of blue here and there is really pretty in my opinion.

 Ah, the Bokeh.......its actually the reflection of the tree lights in the big bay window behind the tree.

 Sigh....

 We don't have a proper tree topper yet, so I put the lovely Santa head ornament at the top of the tree. But the only part you can see is the big bushy beard so it looks like a giant glittery pom-pom. or maybe a snowball.

 Yes, thats just plain old red and gold and silver curling ribbon hung on the branches.It kinda gives the tree a candy confection look- and I LOVE it!!!

 TREE!!!!!!!

 Yeah- the gift pile needs work, but to be fair- the tree and decorations for our house was all I asked for for Christmas- and Paul got his tattoo for his BIG Christmas prezzie, so there's just littel stocking stuffer type gifts under the tree this year. Next year it will be different. :-)

One of my Snow Village houses. I gotta buy more houses for it. 3 is defo NOT what I call a village.

 Our Entry Way......I love it. Didn't love it so much before I added the curling ribbon and the ball ornaments and Jingle bells to it tho.

 A view of it from a bit further back...and all our Christmas Cards too.

Our Kitchen window all dressed up.

 Father Christmas was in the Square at St. Helens today taking final requests from the kids before heading back to the North Pole on Monday to start loading up his sleigh for the big trip on Christmas Eve!!!

Pretty sure that is Cupid the man is standing next to. I asked why the elves wasn't there with Santa and he said that they were WAYYYYYY too busy finishing up the list of toys and gift wrapping to be galavanting all over the world with him!!!
