This was the first Christmas in our new house. Instead of buying gifts for each other, Rodger and I decided to buy decorations for our house. We went shopping together one day, and ended up buying a 5 foot wreath and 12 foot tree for outside. Rodger did all of the work to decorate the outside, and it really looked great. We were very proud of our house, and while we really loved the decorations of a certain house around the block, we felt that ours was one of the best in the neighborhood. The inside of the house took an entire weekend to decorate. We added 4 new trees and a lot of decor to the house. Sophie has an animal theme, Abby had a snowman theme, the office had a classic outdoor theme, and the dining room had a single cardinal (in honor of the World Series Champs for Rodger). My favorite part of the house was the mantle with the matching stockings and decor. In this photo, you can also see the girls' favorite toys of the season - singing plush animals and the nativity set that plays music. We are so thankful that we have such a beautiful house. In addition, we were able to host three Christmas parties this year and show off our decorations to many of our family and friends. We look forward to many Christmases together in this home.
