It's getting close! Only three more days till the big event (depending on if you open presents on Mon or Tues. that is). Brokencandy would like to extend a happy holidays greeting to all readers. Hope you have a wonderful holiday with your family and friends!!
The hub and I decided to celebrate Christmas in Los Angeles in our new home. To help us get in the spirit, we decided to go shopping and get some new decorations. When we were in Michigan last month, we visited BRONNERS (the largest Christmas themed store in the world). We decided we wanted our tree to match our living room so we bought everything in teal and somehow our tree took on a peacock theme as well. In addition to teal and peacock items we also have some old fashion ornaments that we bought and of course a few oldies from as years (i.e. like the Christmas Monkey). Everything we bought was in two's so if you come to our house and find the three items that are not in two's, you win a prize!!! One of my favorite decorations is the "Two Peas in a Pod" decoration.
When we visited Sanger for Thanksgiving, Santa Rusca contributed more teal/peacock themed decorations to the cause. The first week of December we visited the local YMCA tree lot and bought ourselves a six foot tall tree. We had fun decorating it into the wee hours of the morning with all of our decorations from Michigan and Sanger. The pics below were taken a while ago but now we have presents under the tree so it looks even more inviting! Thanks to our momma's for contributing to our decorating tree fund!! I think it turned out sooo pretty! Brian and I can't wait for Christmas in our new house!!
Sadly, my Disney decorations had to take a break from appearing on the tree but they are still out of the box decorating the big window in my dining room and my Tinkerbell topper is now topping a bottle of wine but she still shining her light each night!
