Here There and Everywhere

Time to share a bit more Christmas around here!  Please forgive me if I have not responded to some comments...having an issue with blogger.  Those who are always so faithful about commenting, rest assured, I will get to you sooner or later.  Today I am sharing our family room, breakfast area and kitchen.  This is where we live, and I chose to have it be merry, bright and fun.  If you missed my first Christmas post, you can find it HERE.

Our mantel decor got some updates this year.  I found the flocked, pre-lit garland at At Home and combined it with the cotton stem garland from my Fall Mantel...love how it looks!

 I use to collect snowmen, adding one each year, but haven't added any for quite some time.  I adore the ones I have and find new ways each year to display them.

Lots of Christmasing Going On

Hey everyone!  Long time, no blogging; but I am back and ready to share!  In case you are wondering, "Christmasing" is definitely a word....at least around my home, and I've been doing lots of it.  I seriously pulled out all the stops this year and used everything I had, plus a few new things.  And, you know what?  It took me over a week, but I enjoyed every minute of the process.  And, isn't that the way it should be?  Well, anyway, let's get this show on-the-road.  I promise I will TRY  not to be overly wordy.

I've never had this tree in this location before, and The Man and I are loving it!  This is the view as you walk into our entry.  I wasn't sure it would work, but there is ample room to walk around either side of the tree....well, maybe not for me after I ingest a few too many Christmas cookies!

Feeling Fall and Had to Share

Yes, I know I said in my last post, that I didn't know if I would be sharing anymore in blogland;  but, hey, it's almost Fall, my home is decorated, and I just had to share.  One big thing I have learned in the month and a half that I haven't posted, I can seriously get a lot done!  On the flip-side, I really do miss all of you so very much; and trying to stay in touch through IG or FB just isn't the same.  All that being said, you'd better grab a snack (is it cool enough in your area for a Pumpkin Latte?) because as usual, this post is photo-heavy!  I truly am going to keep the chit-chat to a minimum, I promise.  So, what are you waiting for, come on in!
