Christmas Decorations
I finally got most of the boxes unpacked and the Christmas things put up. It took a while this year! Our lovely tree in the front room...

A cute nativity Jennifer talked me into buying-I love it!

The tree in the family room the boys helped to decorate!

In my boxes I found these soldier ornaments my mom and I (and my sisters) made when I was a little girl.

I remember my mom making TONS of ornaments, beaded angels, teddy bear angels, soldiers, drums...she was always busy making fun ornaments for her tree at Christmas time. She always had a nice looking tree and my dad always wanted a "Charlie Brown" tree. Usually we had two, a nice one for company with matching ornaments and the not so perfect one for us to mess with. Looks like I inherited that tradition!

cute trees! We used to do that growing up to. I have a peice of mail for Adam here that I keep meaning to bring by but obviously I haven't. I will bring it by soon, if not then I will bring it to the end of the year Mexican Jones Party. :)
It looks fantastic in person. I love all the trees and lights in your house.
We have soldiers like that, too! My grandparents used to make them by the gross to sell to stores for Christmas. My grandpa made cool stands for them to sit in to dry since they used oil based paint that took forever to dry!
