Decking the Halls

The Living Room tree is finished with the theme of "Heavenly Muisc". Blue and white light twinkle with blue ribbon, music notes and various instruments hung around the tree .


The Entry tree theme is "Tools of the Trade"- the ornaments are either tools or toys. Daddy uses tools to build and little Tim builds with toys. So we have tools and toys for 2 Tim's. Can you say that three times quickly!

Downstairs are the three little trees that the kids get to decorate with their favorite ornaments!
The halls of the house are decked out for the holidays!
The Department 56 village is up, the navity scene set, and the outdoor lights are up. Even Santa is standing by the light post next to the North Pole sign. The stockings are hung by the chimney, and the snow globes all cleaned off. This week will be bake and clean time to get ready for the Manning Family Christmas!

Miss Kelley and Mr. Tim: We'll be thinking about you guys tomorrow. I so wish we could be there to celebrate. My memories of Katie, at 18 months, bouncing around your living room in her red velvet dress, her cheeks all flushed, clapping her hands to some incredible Irish music...what fun. We'll miss you this year.

Love you guys.

We missed you guys as well. We sang Christmas carols, had more food that I can describe and this year there were 3 new babies. You know how Mr Tim loves the babies. Little Keenan, Katie's dancing partner, was missing as well as he had his tonsils out.

It was a great time and next time-in 2 years, you will be here:)
