Christmas time is one of my favorite times during the year.
This is our main Christmas tree in our living room. I really wish there was a window at the front of the house where we could put it, so people could actually see it, besides us :)
Matt's mom gave me the "S" to go on the wreath. I think it is really cute.
My mom gave me these angels, I think they are so pretty in the yard, they show up better during the day.
Here is our dining room and bannister decorated. I don't ever get to use my Christmas China, b/c we are always gone, so I like to at least set it out during the holidays, so I can enjoy it.
Spending time with friends and family, and celebrating the birth of Christ- it's such a great holiday.
Not to mention all of the other fun things that come along with it, decorating the tree, yummy homemade goodies, getting fun surprises for others, and all of the other fun stuff that comes with it.
I love going to the Christmas eve service with my family, seeing family and friends, that we might not see as often, and just celebrating the season, and all it means.
Sometimes it is so hard not to get caught up in all that is going to, and forget the true meaning.
The true meaning that we celebrate Christmas to celebrate Christ birth, and what he has done for us.
I am speaking right back to myself on this one as well, as I know sometimes I get way too caught up too, and I need to make sure and put the real reason as first and foremost in my mind.
One thing I really enjoy doing is decorating our tree/house for the holidays.
My favorite decoration this year, is my Auburn tree. Matt and I both went to Auburn, so it is something we hold close to our hearts.
I started thinking about doing an Auburn tree after the last couple of years when we have received several Auburn ornaments as gifts.
So this year I decided I wanted to do a small tree all Auburn themed.
We found some orange lights right after Halloween and Blue lights when all of the Christmas stuff was out in stores.
I also found some navy blue and orange balls that were perfect.
Below are some other pics of our house all decorated for the holidays.
