Christmas Makeover

I love decorating for Christmas!!
Normally I don't go all out as most years we go home to celebrate with family.
This year because the kids and I are staying here, I decided it was time to get everything out. This way I can go through everything and get rid of stuff I will never use or don't need! I didn't get everything out either....I decided not to do the big lighted swags about the windows and big doorway.
Of course this means everything gets a good cleaning before hand!


The entertainment center looks so bare!

Toys have been moved around in the toy room.
Lola's cat 'mansion' has been temporarily moved to Cory's room!

I decided to put up the big 7 1/2 foot tree this year!



The entertainment center is no longer bare!

The toy room looking festive

I didn't like that I couldn't see the tree in the toy room so I put up another tree in the living room for me to look at

I couldn't stop at just 2 trees! This is our very first tree that we bought after we moved to California.

I do LOVE my big tree though! It's so pretty at night!!

  1. Looks great!!! :) We debated on the tree with being gone for Christmas, but decided to put it up on Thanksgiving, and i took the tree down the day before we left, i was sad, but sooo happy it was all put away when we got back! Now it is just snowmen all over the house!
