Decorating for Christmas

I love decorating the house and yard each year for the holidays!  I've collected so many beautiful Christmas decorations, and it's fun to come up with new ways to use them each year.

I start with a trip to Flower World to get evergreen wreaths for the front door, the garden gates, and the picket fence driveway entrance to our home.  I even had a wreath this year for the Scamp trailer (she needs to be decorated, too!).

I have over 200 Shiny-Brite glass ornaments from the 30's and 40's in my collection.  It takes an entire day to get all of them on the Christmas tree in the living room.  I put on my favorite Christmas music, eat some sugar cookies, and enjoy remembering Christmases past.

I especially love my collection of Santa mugs and my Christmas mice.
