You are being greeted by my newest Snowman added to my Snowman collection on my tree. He is an Irish Snowman...cause, you know...my Irish eyes are a smilin'!
This is my foyer - the foyer table is actually my husband's grandmother's vanity...here is where all the Christmas cards you send me come to rest. Also, please note the wooden nutcracker statue, this was painted lovingly by my child...in honor of the first ever time she saw The Nutcracker! It has been a big deal in her world this Christmas!
This cute gingerbread couple made an appearance a few years ago and my daughter thought they needed to rest on my bookcase this year, under the handprint Christmas tree she created last year in pre-K. She has the Christmas decorating style this year...
Now, typically, this Christmas china that I started collecting way back in 1992 would be out on the dining room table by now, all ready for some scrumptious eats on Christmas morning. But this year, I have been a little slow in the ironing of my tablecloth and such, so it is still housed safely in the china cabinet...but I still wanted you to see it...ain't it pretty?
Before we travel any further, I wanted you to see the fireplace. I really love it now that I have a new mirror and new paint on the walls. I fully intend to have a fire glowing warmly in here before the year is up!
Come on into the kitchen...here is my Coca-Cola tree. I keep gaining ornaments for it, maybe next year it will become a full size tree...here's hoping!!
Each year I try to find one or two new items to add to my house hold decorations...this year, I found these adorable placemats and just had to indulge...aren't they sweet? Everyone say...awww!!
Here is Mr. Freckles (our fish) all dressed up for Christmas.
A visit just would not be complete with a little snack to take home with you. Here is my crockpot candy...I am making a big batch, but here is some that I made yesterday...just for you! Enjoy and thanks for stopping by. My family hopes you and yours enjoy a wonderful and merry Christmas!

A lovely tour - thank you very much for inviting us in.
I love that china set - I started a collection for my mom back in 91 - she never added to it. I remember being so irked that she wasn't as excited about it as I was. Maybe I'll inherit it when she kicks.
:P
