Its beginning to look a little like Christmas....

Well, that time of year again.... Christmas Time!!!! In our household, it is a must to wait until after Thanksgiving to start decorating for Christmas. The reason for this is because both Hubs and my birthdays are during the Thanksgiving week.. All the department stores and retail stores jump the gun and start decorating for Christmas right after Halloween... So we try to remember that there is still the whole month of November to celebrate another important holiday!!!! :) So, now that we are done celebrating Thanksgiving.... Bring on Christmas!!!

First of all, it would not feel like Christmas without cold weather.... And lucky for us, the temperature here has been way below normal.. Today's high was in the 50s... So it was definitely very chilly today... And I absolutely loved it!! What would be the best is to have snow tooo!! Not that that will happen here in the middle of nowhere, Texas! Oh well, I can wish!! :) Maybe when we go home for Christmas I can see some snow... :)

Soo we started to decorate our house a little... This is just the beginning stages.. Being a newly married couple, we have to start accumulating decorations.. This is what we have come up with so far....


Hubs decided he would be adventurous and put up lights!


Boys hard at work!


This is what happens when you are outside and 5:00pm hits! The national anthem plays everyday at 5:00pm.. The boys just happened to get stuck on the roof! :)

Here is how everything looks..

This is what the lights look like at night... Yay! :)

We have a wreath on our front door!!

Semi decorated inside...

This is how I get the house to feel a little bit more like the holidays!! Vanilla, Pine and Cinnamon candles!

And an Autumn Wreath candle!!

Just like the house... It is slowly coming along...

I love Christmas time!!! And I cannot wait to go home and celebrate with everyone! :)
