Christmas Preparations

December has flown by and, like you, we have been busy preparing for the holidays.  One of my favorite Christmas chores is decorating the house.  I just loved finding the perfect spot for my new "Merry Christmas" sign, which I found at an antique store in Gouldsboro.

I'm also embracing natural decor, like pine cones, which look really great with the green accents and brown transferware featured in the dining room:

 

The kids have been a big help with baking this year.  Here's the results of this morning's efforts:

The trees are finally up, and I just love relaxing on the sofa and enjoying the soft glow of its lights at the end of a long day.

I hope that you too have had the chance to enjoy the delights of the season!
