MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

I have been slowly trying to get all things settled and moved in. To be honest I haven't done quite well. I don't have any furniture for my formal dining and living room, so that became the drop off for ALL Boxes when I moved in. At the time I thought...oh this will be a GREAT place that way all boxes are in one area and not scattered about the house. Umm, now they sit and someone really needs to unpack those!

I debated on decorating for Christmas. In the end, I couldn't resist the urge to put decorations up in my new house for the first year. So while the boxes still remain in the front I have managed to decorate up my den and the outside of the house!

My mom and I had Thanksgiving here at my house. I made the entire meal, and I'm proud to say it all came out quite well! :) I LOVE cooking and entertaining! And now it looks as if Christmas is going to be at my place as well with my aunt and cousin coming. Good thing I went ahead and decorated...it just wouldn't have been the same!



Here are a few pictures of the Holidays so far at the house...

MMM...Doesn't that Thanksgiving meal Look FABULOUS?!

The Outside of the house

A Wreath my mom's friend, Ruby, gave me. I wanted to hang it over the garage, but didn't want to venture up to the ease of the house over the roof in attempts to hang it!

And Finally my Beautiful Christmas tree with my first attempt at decorating a mantle.

I hope you all have a VERY Merry Christmas! May the Lord continually bless you and I hope you feel the Joy and Spirit of Christ this season!
