Christmas 2012

I was thinking about how to decorate for Christmas.  I have a mantle that the kids & I will put our Christmas houses.  Ethan & I picked out a few new ones before Halloween.  He wanted a Toy Shoppe & I picked out a Coffee Shop.  Plus we got a bridge and a sign arch (not sure what to call it)- it is a sign, but in an arch shape.  

Our mantle will be different this year.  Instead of the snow flakes I normally use, I am going to use white lights.  I saw this on a blog somewhere, which I do not remember where.  

Here are some photos from Christmas 2012:

Closer look at the Mantle
I wish I took a close up, but this will have to do.

Christmas Tree 2012
We could not find the loop garland we normally use.  It is colorful.

Christmas cookies!
Ashleigh has an apron on that is Santa Clause.  I got it at KMart.

I found this apron at KMart.  Not sure when.  Noah loves his penguin apron.  We use it all year round.

Ethan has Noah's old apron that I painted a penguin and his name.  I am thinking maybe I should paint over Noah's name with black fabric paint then add Ethan's name to make it his.

I hope you have a lot of fun decorating your tree!  I will put up photos of our mantle & tree once we get it done.
