The Mess

So I'm guessing that my Holiday Home Tour videos haven't been viewed by anyone but my Mom because I have received next to no comments, so I'm also guessing that for most of you this post will have zero relevance!  But, here are some pics of the mess that I make decorating...

Kitchen Tree Decorations
Ornaments for Living Room Tree
Bedroom Mess
As hard as it may be for you to imagine, I actually think I made less of a mess than usual!

I watched- and I thought I left comments, but I'm sleep deprived, so I'm not sure. Everything is beautiful. I love the behind the scenes look- I always like seeing all the work that goes into making a house Christmas-ready.

Excuse me...I did watch each one, its just that I am depressed by how cute it all is. You know since we are on NO Christmas life over here. Pssst, don't tell the man I live with and am married to, because on SAT that will all change! I think I will have that mess plus in my MuCh mUcH much smaller house! Ha

Winston loved the Christmas card too...it was OUR FIRST Christmas card! YEAH!

I love your little puppy; she probably just didn't want to get her paws dirty. ;)

Decorating is always such a big mess, but so worth it when it's all done! Enjoy this time of year!
