has officially entered our house! Wednesday after work I stopped at a little store by my house and was overwhelmed by all the Christmas items. Christmas trees were decorated, nativities were set up, festive music was playing...and I was buying everything in sight. I laugh at myself, cause it seems like every year I do the same thing...I go to this store, fall in love with all the pretty things and decide to buy as many new Christmas decorations as I can in hopes that my house will look as pretty as the store. Then when I have my tree all decorated I ask Cody if he thinks it's ugly...cause of course it doesn't look as nice as the ones in the stores, but that's okay, right? So Wednesday after buying 4 bags of new decorations I came right home and brought up all my old things and started decorating. I figure if I get things all ready now, then I can really enjoy december and I won't be stressed out trying to get everything done at the last minute. I even started my Christmas shopping and I'm happy to say that I'm about half way done. I love this time of year. I love focusing on what's really important, and remembering Christ's birth. What a special time of year. A time to spend with those we love!

So Kim, which store is this??? Please do tell - are you talking about Greenland? Your house looks great! I am hoping in the next couple of weeks to get most of my stuff up! We get a real tree, so I have to wait till the first week or two of December to get that, or it is falling apart by Christmas!
It looks GREAT Kim! I love it. Way to do it early! I have been listening to Christmas music for a month now! I LOVE Christmas.
p.s. I can't believe you still have that angel!!!
