Its Beginning to Look a Little Like Christmas

I have been one busy girl decorating the house today. So far I have the foyer almost complete, I’m just looking for a centerpiece for the table. I’ve got the tree up, and I just need my hubby to hang the wreath in the dining room Nico+ hammer & nail+ ladder= not a good idea

Check back for some pics of the completed projects, we are off to the store.

Another Chilly Day

The colder weather looks like it is here to stay, so I’m sticking close to home and working on decorating the house for Christmas. I’m not much of a holiday decorator, so this is a slow going project for me. I hope to have the Christmas tree up soon.

Yesterday I hung a few lights around our large leaded glass window, I and restrung a wreath with bright lights. Thade was so excited to see Christmas lights, I know he’ll really enjoy the tree too. I keep debating about keeping the decorating nice and simple, or going all out…

Dollar Tree Shopping Trip

As you well know, I’m a super big fan of the everything for a dollar shops. Whenever I go out of town I always want to stop off a Dollar Tree (we don’t have one locally), but by the time we have shopped 2-3 stores the kids are tired and ready to go home. Yesterday I finally made it to Dollar Tree, and I love love love this store.

I found so many great finds for Christmas, and decorations too! At check-out I was handed a coupon for a %10 off $10.00 sale for next Sunday, I hope I can make the sale. I filled my cart and only spent $10.73 (with tax). Here is what I came home with:

• An 8 pack of Christmas Tumblers
• A Floral Red& White Coffee Cup perfect for my Sister-in-law’s Red Kitchen
• An adorable Christmas Penguin for Dylan’s Stocking
• 16 Christmas cards with envelopes
• 2 Totes that I’m using for my Spa-kit Christmas Gifts for the Grandmas
• A Snowman Wreath for the Front Door (I kinda decorated)
• 2 Felt Christmas Stockings for the kiddos
• One pack of Glitter Cars Crayons for Thade’s stocking

I really enjoyed the store, and the selection was huge. I can’t wait to go and shop Dollar Tree again
