O' Christmas tree

Isn't this just the cutest tree! I was shopping in a great gift shop and found this. The minute I saw it I knew I just had to have it. I don't know why, but it just absoluely grabbed my heart!

Spreading the cheer!

I got this fantastic Christmas CD from a friend at work yesterday. I have been getting ready for Christmas and listening to the music in the background...it's just perfect! I finally took a pic of the outside snowman basket to share and I took a pic of this sweet reindeer that just sets the mood for Christmas...I can't wait! Got to admit though, the scrapbooking has been put to the side BUT I got my hands on some awesome papers and embellies and I can hardly wait to scrap!

Christmas card 2009

As we draw closer to Christmas all the decorations are coming out. What a happy feeling to have all the cute trimmings hanging here and there. Last night hubby and I went and picked out our Christmas tree and put it up. The living room smells ever so sweetly of pine! I absolutely love that smell! I used some tree brances to decorate our porch basket with...the perfect outside touch for the yard. Tonight I am working on our family Christmas cards...a Christmas tree made from the form of our hands. I can't wait to send them! Fun, fun, fun!
