Deck The Halls...Fa-La-La-La-La...La-La-La-La...

 We got the house all decorated (mostly, more on that)...
I got these cute little jars at the Dollar Store, perfect for Christmas candy!
I put some thin mints, peppermint sticks, and peanut brittle in them!
 Got this cute little glass vase there as well...perfect for candy canes!
 Kitty has been a good boy this year.
He hasn't tried to climb the tree...yet.
And he hasn't carried off any candy canes yet either.
 He has the cutest routine.
Each night, he lays on his stocking under the tree...and stares at the Baby Jesus in the manger!
It is just precious!
 The stockings were hung...on the door with care...
(I wish I had a fireplace!)
 I got this "Pinterest-y" idea...
I had all of these little Christmas Carols that my dad had given me years ago...
So I strung them together to make a banner!

 I hung some ornaments with ribbons and candy canes along the patio curtain rod.
I am NOT the best DIY-er or decorator, but I do my best.
 The boys did a great job decorating the tree in the family room!
 My Christmas boxes and wooden tree mom and dad made...
 Some other decor...
I was saying to my mom, that I think she has made or given me the majority of my Christmas decorations over the last 20 years I've been married!
 I love this HOPE plaque and JOY bottles she made!
 I put my usual swags and reindeer in the windows...and added some hanging ornaments and candy canes as well this year!
 I (((heart))) snowmen!
 More decor in the entryway...
 The coffee table...
 End tables...
I have one more major thing to get done.
We are hosting the family Christmas get-together this year...so...
I am clearing out the daycare room and returning it to its living room state!
We'll be putting a second tree in the living room as well!
I'm super excited about that!
Well that it for now!
I hope you're having fun "Decking your Halls" as well!
Merry Christmas!
