Second, my friend ErinKH tagged me to post my Christmas Decorations. Actually, it was originally a pic of my front door. Since I don't really have anything more than just a simple wreath that I snarfed from my Mom's old Christmas decorations, I decided to pick just a few of my favorite decorated spots from the around the house.


So, without further ado (just felt like saying that) here they are...


Our tree:


((Ooh, that picture came out dark!))


The girls' tree (they decorated it themselves):


((Shoot! I forgot to turn the lights on!!))


My village (this is my favorite spot!)





Did you see Elfie? He's sitting on top of the Pharmacy.


So, Kelsey, Sharon, & Heather - Ladies, show me your stuff!!


I think tomorrow I'll take better pictures of the trees when it's light outside and post those, but until then...


...TAG, you're it!! Be sure to add a comment so everyone can read your post!
