In the couple of weeks leading up to Thanksgiving I am always itching to get the Christmas decorations down. I usually don't put any decorations out or put the tree up until Thanksgiving afternoon. Since we went to Springdale for Thanksgiving this year, I put all of the stuff up the weekend before. The amount of decorations I have grows each year. Usually my dad is there to help put up the Christmas tree, but this year Scott and I did it all by ourselves (maybe that's why it's not exactly centered in the window).
Here is the tree. I have not yet perfected the art of putting mesh in my tree, but I think I did a little better this year than last. I am trying to find something else to go into the top of the tree to make it even bigger. Maybe something glittery.
Below is the mantle. I love it, but I feel like it needs a little something more.
I have more decorations than this, but I only took a couple last night. I have a Willow Tree Nativity set which I LOVE (thanks mom!), lots small decorative Christmas trees, and Scott even has a Razorback tree upstairs.
I also love this time of year because Lifetime and Hallmark Channels play cheezy Christmas movies all the time! I will watch almost any of them once and I have some that are my favorites that I record every year and watch at least 5 times.
I hope to do a little Christmas shopping this weekend so we will finally have gifts under the tree! MERRY CHRISTMAS!
