It's finally December! Christmas is just around the corner and the festivities are on the way! Every year we dedicate the day after Thanksgiving to Christmas decorating...and this year we had a little helper...mischievous too! We waited to do anything with the lights until it was a little darker because we wanted to see Lincoln's reaction. We put Christmas lights on the house a few weeks ago while it was warm and when we turned them on all we heard from Lincoln was ooo's and awwww's. He loved them. We weren't disappointed with his reaction to more lights. It was a blast! He even figured out how to plug the last strand in and had fun playing in all it's bright glory! Until he found the other end of the plug and we decided him chewing on that probably wasn't a very good idea. I thought that stage would end...nope...everything still goes in the mouth.
Display space is a little short now. No fireplace mantel, only my two shelves but I have a bar height counter. It is now the perfect home for the Nativity. It really is the perfect place for it. You can see the Nativity from everywhere in our front room and I love it! This is what Christmas is all about. I just hope that I can remember that and be able to teach my kids that too. I love Christmas...everything about it is grand! From the decorating to the candy making to acting out the story on Christmas Eve...it is wonderful!
