It's begining to look a lot like Christmas!

We've been busy decorating for Christmas lately. We've bought our tree from the traditional Home Depot parking lot, decorated it full of ornaments that are equally full of memories, and have been sneaking bits of Christmas wherever we can find room. We don't spend a lot of money on decorations (aside from the ornaments), because we moved often and didn't want a lot of stuff to haul around. This year, we've found a lot of cute stuff at....the 99 cent store!

We love Disneyland and we love (Ok, it's probably more of a I love) It's a Small World Holiday. Small World Holiday is mainly decorated in white, silver and iridescent colors. I try to keep that theme when I buy things, but sometimes you have to make do with what you can find. So little by little I work at my theme.

Veggie-Tales Christmas sets the mood here.

If you followed the 4 Moms, 35 kids link-up, you'll notice we've re-arranged a bit. It was a pain to see the TV! This set up works much better. We also moved a bigger rug in here.

Back of the living room wall, new-to-us hutch and the only snowflakes you'll see around here.

Kitchen- with a new-to-us bigger table!

We've never had two trees before, but the people who lived here before us left a fake tree in the garage. We finally pulled it out and it was in good shape. So it is gracing the kitchen, since it does no justice to the garage. This tree I filled with non-breakable ornaments (which I even tested by tossing them around a bit), and the kids can rearrange and redecorate to their liking. They know that the real tree in the living room is not to be touched.

You know you have toddlers when the tree is decorated from the middle up.

Merry Christmas!
