Holiday Time!
It took awhile to recover from the big birthday and turkey day, but now we are in full Christmas Mode!
vannyB was a trooper seeing Santa this year.
You wouldn’t know from his photo though.
It took a mere HOUR and A HALF of waiting in line to see Mr. Claus, but that didn’t phase vanny. As soon as we got close enough for van to see him, he had the biggest grin on his face! He squealed and laughed and even walked right up to Santa, BUT sitting on the lap was a different story!
And here are our Holly Jolly Decorations!
We decided on a mini tree this year partly because the ones we normally get {tall and lanky} were not available, but also because we weren’t sure how Mr. Go-Go Gadget Arms would be with the tree and ornaments.
Here’s our beauty! Short and Sweet!
van LOVES turning the lights on and off with the remote.
Every morning we count to three and turn the lights on with a big grin! It’s my favorite!!
Here’s the Mantle..
I’m LOVING the gold wreath over the artwork. {Wonder if it could stay up year round?}
I also love our Christmas stockings…
And here is what the outside of the house looks like!
the rope lights are back!!
and so is the painted pumpkin stack!
Maybe next year I’ll actually get ALL the xmas decorations up prior to the week before Xmas.
Who am I kidding?!
Happy Holidays!- the vB’s
