Here it is, after looking at these pictures I sigh. This time of year is exhausting. Not only do I decorate alot but the parties, gift giving, cooking, baking and I don't even have children yet! But I love it, I wouldn't change it, I may change my mind when I have to put it all away again.
As a first year blogger I have to say we as Americans have some talent! It's not easy taking things and making them beautiful or making a house into a home. And I have seen many many homes and I'm happy that others feel the same way as I do walking into their front doors...
