It’s Christmas in our home and we would love for you to come in and stay a while. The Christmas Glow is in every room.
So take off your boots and come on in.
As you enter our home you come into out gathering room. Here you will see our Owls and Southwestern tree.
We gather here and dine with friends and family.
The table is set with a lovely centerpiece adorned with feathers and poinsettias.
The peppermint fragrance coming from the kitchen is absolutely delightful. Lets go in.
Our Christmas Kitchen has a small tree decorated with cookie cutters.
And it comes in handy as a centerpiece as well!
Gingerbread houses can be found throughout. When I worked at a Preparatory School in Cleveland. They had a Gingerbread House contest. The houses were incredible! So my love of Gingerbread houses started at that time.
Our kitchen looks out into our family room.
The stockings were made by Sweet Man’s Mom. She has made hundreds for friends and family.
A touch of the Southwest is added by including my red boots. And you never know when I am going to change the coffee table tray.
Even though I am retired from teaching… children’s books are still loved! ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas illustrated by Mary Engelbreit sits proudly on the coffee table.
Our fireplace mantel can’t be overlooked… Sweet Man installed it perfectly!
The mercury glass glistens in the evening.
Our tree in here has special ornaments. My White House Historical Association Ornaments from 2002 and our travel ornaments that I make from my photos using Shutterfly.
You can find me resting from the Christmas Festivities in our Master Bedroom.
Our backyard patio doesn’t escape Christmas decorations as well.
A surprise awaits you around the corner…………
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The debut of my She Shed!
I have always wanted a She Shed and Sweet Man built this one for me. Next week I will invite you in for a quick peek of the She Shed. It’s a real treat to see! But for now… let’s go back to the kitchen for coffee or cocoa. I have a Christmas Mug for everyone!
Thank you for your visit. We enjoyed having you!
Until Next Time ~Nancy
