Final Christmas post

Well...the holiday is over and I'm ready to have our house back. I have been feeling that our house is stuffed and messy and disorganized. I'm ready to clean, clear and de-clutter!

I realized I didn't share our decorations with you, so here is a final Christmas post before we pack up our decor and fine tune the inside of our home.
My Willow Tree Nativity. Mom and Dad gave me a piece every year and last year {I think} I got the last piece. This is on the entryway table so that it is one of the first things you see when coming inside. I like changing the arrangement every year.  

Mom always has special touches throughout their house and this year I followed her lead. This is our little Nativity set that I placed in our guest bathroom.

These houses were always put up in Nana and Pawpaw's front window and now they have a special place on our mantle.

I can't remember if Pawpaw made this little wooden reindeer or not, but it always reminds me of their house and the cloth reindeer had a new place to perch every year in our home.

Our colorful Christmas tree.
Each year we get an ornament that represents something that happened that year. This year we got one of Santa climbing up the Empire State Building to represent our trip to NYC. We have everything from an ambulance (for when we met working as EMT's) to a camel luggage tag with our wedding date that my Aunt Julie made us, to Giants and Dodgers baseballs and much more.

I hope that you had a wonderful holiday, no matter how it was spent. Hopefully I'll have some fresh decor to share soon!
