Christmas...:)

I decided to feature my Christmas decor today! I absolutely love Christmas and decorating for Christmas! I wanted to share some pictures I took around my house! The first few are in my kitchen. The kitchen is my favorite place to decorate each year....probably because it is so bright and cheery! It is all decked out in gingerbread and sweet treats! Each year I add a little more to my collection....come take a look around!

The top of my fridge!

The Cookies sign is a new addition this year! It makes me smile...:)

My kitchen tree....all decked out in sweet treats!

Top of my cabinets...gingerbread houses and train. The garland has candy and peppermint lights.

Area by my stove...my mother-in-law made the gingerbread girl for me years ago!

Another cutie made by my mother-in-law!

My coffee/hot cocoa area. I love it!

A closer view....:)

Yankee Candle gingerbread carousel and in the background a ceramic gingerbread muffin pan!

A little cutie I picked up at the Dollar General this year!

This is the buffet in my dining room....complete with a few miniature nativities.

My china cabinet....with a little Christmas decor.

Next up are some pictures of my snowman collection. This started several years ago with the teacher snowgirl you will see in one of the pictures. She has apples on her dress...you can't miss her! Anywho, my favorite aunt bought her for me when I was in college to become a teacher.....and that started the collection! I have surrounded her with several little snow students...:) Some of these were gifts and some I bought myself, but each one is near and dear to my heart! Take a peek.....

I love the snow family....a Secret Santa gift at school a few years ago!

Two of these three cuties were Secret Santa gifts as well!

My cutie teacher snowgirl and her students.
I love the one with the red and green hat....he has a huge head and little body!

A couple more cuties....the one on the right is a snow globe!

You can see books by my favorite author in the background here!

More sweet little snowmen. The one in the center was a gift from my daughter...:) I love them all!

This is my largest and he springs up and down! Don't look at the dust on top of my  media cabinets....LOL!
I had to hold the camera up high to snap this one and I didn't know the top was so dusty!

Frosty's hat...:)

Not the best picture, but this is the cabinets with the snowmen inside.
They light up and look so pretty with all the snowflakes, snowballs, and fake snow surrounding the snowmen!

My Santa I've had since my kiddos were small, along with a few new Christmas novels....:)

My tree covered with sentimental ornaments....we love reminiscing  over them each year!

I love this antique bowl sitting on top of my Christmas Carol books...it has 2 scenes from Dickens on it!
I found it at a flea market a couple years ago and fell in love! I have a large collection of the Christmas tree jars you see here as well....all found at yard sales & flea markets for next to nothing! The pedestal one in this picture is my favorite!

Well, that's it for now...I hope you enjoyed the tour! Next year I hope to have my library area finished so I can decorate it! I have big plans for it involving book page ornaments! I can't wait...:) I plan to feature my favorite aunt's house soon. It is just gorgeous! Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

Be Blessed,
