DECORATIONS-INSIDE AND OUT

I was able to use many decorations that we've had for years, so it seems more like home than the RV did. The plant shelves came in handy.
The crib at the corner was made by my grandfather before I was born. It seems right to use it again. The little tree down th shelf holds the ornaments from my mother's tree when she was a little girl. Colette should notice the "big" snowman amd snowwoman she made me before she learned what the word "small" meant. I'm sure glad I kept them.

I put loads of ornaments in the auction, but I seemed to have kept just the right amount for our new tree. The ornaments are all antiques from my father's family and the tree skirt was made by Don's mother. I bought the angel when the kids were little because I thought she looked perfect for our family-she has green hair and is cross-eyed!

We put a few lights outside-on the front of our home and on the shed.


Next year maybe we'll join the neighbors in the Griswold contest. We'll have to think about it.
