Are you getting tired of my Christmas pictures???

It is beginning to look festive here in Ohio...the decorations are almost done!!
I hope you aren't tired of seeing them yet because I have the living room and much more to share. These are actually pictures of the computer room..up close and personal.lol
Enjoy your day of rest.








Be blessed, we are.

More Christmas throughout the house

Even more yet to come! Be blessed, we are.

Colonial Christmas...on the porch

This is a small trip into areas of my back porch. You have seen that I went to a more colonial look for that area. Most of the furniture is black. I do have more pictures of a few more back porch areas I will share later. Enjoy.






I was hoping to be finished yesterday but I still have a little more to do. All the large areas are done but I am working on the the coffee tables and mantle area. I did finish the bathroom, kitchen, and foyer yesterday! Hurray!
I will post more tomorrow and a few thoughts about Thanksgiving too. Be blessed, we are.

First Chrstmas decorations up...more to come.

This is where I started the day...just an old box and a quilt. As you can see the Christmas tree box has been through the mill...we found it in the trash when one of our renters left. Let me tell you I was a happy girl when I found this silver tree. My grandma always had a silver tree and I have wanted one for years.

This is not our Christmas tree for presents...this is just a decoration for this room. Our actual tree will not go up until after Thanksgiving. My room is a moss tree but you just can not tell the color in this picture. I also on the shelf but the pictures were blurry so I will have to take a few more and you will have to watch for them.
This is our computer room so now you can see where I am when I am reading all your blogs...lol I did put together a wreath to match the swag but again the pictures were not clear so that will have to be another day.
My back porch is coming along and the living room is ..well...a mess...lol. I have changed my decorating style for Christmas. For some reason I am into glitter this year. I want everything to sparkle. I think this has something to do with the new job or something. Anyways, hope you enjoy so far...more tomorrow. Be blessed, we are.

Ramblings

Yes, Fall is a time of work. I put most of my outside things away but I still have not decorated the porch....My plan is to do it this week while the weather is nice. It is suppose to rain tomorrow and then I will have a couple of days to work on it.
I have been working on my home...getting ready for Thanksgiving. This may be one of the best ever...my DH got a job yesterday. He starts the first week of December and we will have insurance in about 70 days. I am so thankful...I truly am and I will not forget those who are still hunting for a job!!! My prayers will still be with them.
I have started to decorate for the holidays ahead. My back porch will remain fall until after Thanksgiving but the rest of the house I will have decorated for Christmas. Then I will sit back and enjoy the season with my girls and when it get closer I will Christmas shop.
I had great plans for decorating today but my asthma got in the way...my inhaler has not been doing the job so I had to visit the doctor...it was very expensive since we no longer have insurance. I will have to rest for now until I can breathe a little better...hopefully tomorrow I can get busy.
I have been moving furniture...and moving furniture and..well, you get the picture..this is no fun but things are getting better.
I do not think I can put up the big tree until after Thanksgiving because we need the table in the living room but then I will drag everything out and ect.
I will start showing you pictures as I go along. I bought some things in order to make a Christmas wreathe on my french doors...I will show the progress of it too.
I sure miss my parents now that they are in Florida for the winter. I have spent the summer trying to help them with doctor appointments and such...I think it is quiet now that they are gone...
Well...I will be reading your blogs and stop back for my Christmas decorating...that begins tomorrow. Be blessed...we surly are.

A few more pics of the living room

I didn't get much chance to decorate today since I spent most of the day with my youngest daughter and we just browsed around after we picked up an art project for her home schooling.
We also went to the Homestead...if you have not been there then you must find time to stop by. They had the middle floor of the large building decorated for Christmas and truly it was like a winter wonderland. There was so much glitter and primitive and colonial and well...it was just amazing.
I an ready to put some of the clutter away so maybe tomorrow...well..I have to mow the yard and stop at a Mary Kay Open house because I have to pick up some lotion...then I will try to get the house put together...lol
My stitching has come to a halt until I finish decorating...I am missing it.
The snowmen above are on the top of our tv cabinet...they are very large...my mom made them for me.
The angel was a gift from my sister.
I will be around to visit. Be blessed.

Another wall finished...for now.

I have been working on putting my living room back together..you know..put things away..get things out...what a mess that creates. lol anyways this is the wall behind the sofa...just a few snowmen were added to the shelf.
I am leaving all my Thanksgiving decorations out on the mantle...and the kitchen...the computer room and the back porch. I am redecorating the bathroom...time to put out the winter things.
I do have a few cross stitch finishes I just haven't had time to iron them so I can get a picture..but tomorrow is another day.
I helped dh unload his truck and a 16 ft. trailer full of wood so then I decided the decorating was done for today. Anyways, I will keep you posted on any changes. Until then, Be blessed.
