Merry & Bright🎄

Who has already put their Christmas tree and decorations up?

I HAVE!

I love decorating for each season, each holiday. Whether we have people over to see it or not we see it. Me and my husband get to wake up each morning to it and fall asleep too it. It is just a nice feeling when I get to walk through my home after mixing everything up here and there to give us something new and intriguing to look at. Feels comfortable and hopefully welcoming to others if they do decide to visit, but we do it for us. We do it together (for the most part) sometimes I do a little more to surprise my husband, but we do it as a family. I have even face timed my sister before to help me when decorating for this pass Halloween putting up webs over the fireplace bricks and placing fake spiders throughout, but now it is Christmas. A new month, a new season, a new holiday.

I like to wait until after November or at least after Thanksgiving before changing anything. Let one season/holiday fully finish before setting up for the next one, to get the full effect of that specific time of year. This year we waited until the weekend after thanksgiving to start changing things. Me and my husband took down all the fall décor and placed them in a box in our attic removing the boxes for Christmas and winter at the same time. We then rearranged the living room entirely placing our tree and filling it with ornaments while setting out the rest throughout filling the house with garland and lights and tinsel ribbon. Our dogs like to be nosey and involved as well as you can see in the pictures included.💖

Bella (our other outside furbaby) was looking in through the windows as well with Hunter hearing every noise we made and watching as we placed the lightbulb window stickers up. Cocking her head side to side trying to reach out and grabbed them as if she thought she could eat them through the window curious as to what they were, but I was not able to get a picture of that fast enough.

So by the end of the day all was up and arranged all we have left is outdoor Christmas lights that we normally place amongst the front yard fence and front porch post and then two lit snowy deer at the start of the drive.

What all have you done so far? Do you have holiday spirit and decorate at all?
