The toy soldiers greet you as you walk up the front steps.
Inside the sun porch.
More pics of the sunporch. The greenery is just stuck in a flowerpot I wasn't using.
My chicken wire Christmas trees :) I forgot to turn the lights inside them on for the tour...
The stairway. Sorry for the bad lighting. I took these this morning and the sun was coming right in the windows.
My pink tree in the window seat of the stairway.
One of the sconces in the entry way.
Piano in the living room.
Living room
Living room. It's the firs time ever that the wrapping paper actually matched the Christmas tree.
Snowflakes hanging in the front window.
View from the living room into the dining room. Since we don't have a fireplace, the stockings hang on the columns between the two rooms.
The built in hutch.
The table all set for dinner.
Going into the kitchen.
My favorite Santa Claus cookie jar that my sister Pam gave to me.
The chandelier with beads and gingerbread men.
Gingerbread men, candy cane garland and fresh cut greenery make up for no curtains in the kitchen.
Our Christmas count down candy cane.
The guest room. This is the room that I stripped wallpaper and woodwork in. It used to be blue with ugly white trim.
Our version of a guest room closet :)
The guest room.
Ashlyn's room. The molding at the top of the room is how they used to hang pictures in the old days, so it's not mounted flush with the ceiling. There's just enough room for Christmas lights!
Ashlyn's princess tree. Although she informed me when she was putting it up that she's not "that into Princesses anymore." She's apparently more into Barbie now.
Ashlyn's artwork in her room.
Her armoire.
An old school desk I picked up for fifty cents at a yard sale. A little paint goes a long way!
Carter's room. He also got the Christmas lights.
I love this saying. As soon as I saw it, I knew I had to have it for his room.
Carter's bed.
Carter's Christmas tree. He just agreed to have one in his room 2 days ago.
Our room. Thanks to my sister Melinda for the idea for the snowflake wreath!
Another window.
More decorations on top of the dresser.
