Christmas comes early...as in before Thanksgiving...

I had an itch this week to get started on my Christmas decorating. I know most people consider it sacrilegious to decorate before Thanksgiving. But, with all the decorations and music playing throughout every store I frequent I couldn't help but become inspired! Also, in my defense, we have some sort of activity planned every weekend until Christmas so it was really one of the few chances I had. 
There's something about a Christmas decorated house. It has a distinct smell of pine and cranberries, I can't help but smile and be in a good mood when I walk through those front doors covered with greenery and twinkling lights. My favorite thing to decorate this year was the tree, I went with a more handmade vintage theme. Complete with my Mamaw's tree skirt that my mom handed down to me. I love being able to have a little piece of my Mamaw in my home and can't wait to be able to tell Landon all about her and what an incredible, loving woman she was. 
Have a wonderful day and go out there and spread some holiday cheer!!

  6. My aunt and her daughters have a competition to see who can get their tree up first! It's always so funny to see their pics on facebook. My husband says I have to wait until the first week of December.
