More Decorations....

This was the last night we were supposed to have warm weather so we got busy decorating the front of the house. I busted the light in the lantern as I was hanging the wreaths so I'll have to put a new bulb in...probably not tomorrow, supposed to be rainy and really cold.

I had a fight with the grapevine around the door. I didn't take it down during the hurricane so it was a little more mangled than usual so I had to take it down and start over, after some tugging and nailing it went back fine.

Our cute cross and manger....Jonathan says this is the last year for the manger, its sat through to many rains and cold weather.

This is the boys favorite part, filling the manger with pine needle "hay".


More and more "hay".

Its always kinda stressful having "help" from the boys but they love the lights.
The painters come tomorrow to repaint the front room and work on the air conditioning vents. Then maybe I can get my front room and entry back in order, I spent the day moving all the boxes back into the living room. It's like musical boxes to get anything done in the house. I'll post more pictures as the work continues.

This is my comment (Carissa speaking)...I love your decorations. Everything looks so classy! Your tree is gorgeous too. Mine is still our wedding theme with champagne and white, but I think next year we will do something with a little more color :)
Miss you guys. Let's get together soon - like this month. When are you available??

Carissa-
Thanks so much for the compliments! Its funny you like the tree, I do to by the way, b/c the boys keep asking what happened to our real big tree and telling everyone about last years tree that touched the ceiling.....they were shorter, they thought it touched the ceiling last year! The boys love your blog, thanks for all your help with ours!
