night time

Getting ready for bed and having to turn off all of the Christmas lights.  I may sleep down  here in the den tonight near the fireplace.  Going to sleep by the glow of candle light with angels feels peaceful by the fire.

I cut out snowflakes today and glued on snow for Santa's

Christmas decorations

Here are some pictures taken of my house decorations,  a few in living room and hallway.
Will try to post more later .

Inside front door is Santa in a wreath

part of the garland on rail going up

top of the stairs landing where I usually have hanging faux roses , is now silver and green foliage

I haven't turned lights on the tree for this picture and you can really see the tinsel.   Love tinsel, mom always put it on our trees growing up,  she used  to throw it at the tree.

Looking to the end wall of living room.

This wreath is recycled garland that's about 10 years old wrapped around a coat hanger with added birds and pine cones from my yard.   I have been a little heavy handed with the spray snow this year.

I am sharing with "Share Your Cup Thursday"

We upgraded our computer and I am finally getting  used to the new way of doing things for the most part.
 Christmas was happy, mom was here for dinner and Annette and her family along with Derek and his family.    I did go to moms to stay with her on Christmas  night as she cannot stay by herself.   Finally getting some things cleaned up today. 

I made this wreath and it's hanging above the bed in guest room downstairs

Beautiful china teacup that is made in England.   Miranda and Adalyn brought it to me a week ago , sweet Adalyn picked it out.  I love teacups.

I found a good place for the soldiers guarding the steps,  I used the little sticky dots to hold them there.

A little paper house I made for the tree

I used the top of a discarded faux tree to  hang on wall.  Limbs are push against the wall with a little basket on the trunk  

An ornament my husband received

 

Well now that Christmas is over and I have gotten a little more used to the compter; I will be posting more pictures of the Christmas season.
