christmas is coming...

i got started early this year with decorating for christmas. maybe it was because of the snow this past week. or maybe it's because we are not having thanksgiving dinner here so i might as well put away my harvest-y decor. so, i got out last year's decorations from the basement and as i was setting it all up, i realized that we needed some new and improved decorative stuff. most of it was still okay, but i was feeling the urge to freshen things up. so, i went out and came back home with a hole in my wallet and some goodies from pottery barn. shoot, that store and target are like money pits for me!...always walking out of there with a bag in my hand!









we also made a stop at Michael's and picked up a holiday craft...

ahhh, i love christmas... :)
