holiday fun.

I'm not in a very journalistic mood today, so I think I'll just post a bunch of pictures :)

First, Thanksgiving...YUM-OOOO.

 Flower arrangement that Grandma bought Mom years ago to use every Thanksgiving!  It was nice to have a piece of Grandma there.  I still miss her so much :(

We haven't had so many people at our house in a long time - hence the blue chairs and Grandpa being banished to the living room :)



Now...moving onto the best holiday in the history of the world...

Christmas!

We began to decorate this weekend and will finish up next weekend with our tree and final touches on the village!

 Our new wreath...LOOOOOOOOOOOOVE ITT.

Wreath that Linds bought in college that I still have and Santa that Grandma Kearney gave us last year.

 I bought these from Wal-Mart about 4 years ago and I still LOVE them :) hehe

Close ups of the Village coming next week with the TREE!

No chimney, so the counter will have to do :(

I truly have a gift for putting up lights.  The lights were already on the garland, but how PERFECT are these bushes?  I was a little nervous because I have never put lights on bushes before, but it works :)

We need to find a Christmas mat and flag...mine have disappeared from last year!
