Christmas Decorations

December 23, 2012 by Mom on the Make 1 Comment

The kids and I decided to take a few photos of old and new Christmas decorations around our house, as we’re making cookies today.

old ornaments

Remember Ziggy? I was given this ornament when I was in elementary school, and Fozzie Bear sometime in middle school, I believe.

These little houses came from my childhood as well. We also purchased a few more at the Dollar Tree to add on to our town scene. The kids love this setting!  Don’t you love how mammoth the snowmen are compared to the houses?  They were purchased at the Dollar Tree this year, so not quite to scale with our sweet little houses. 🙂

This gold ornament tree was recovered from, guess where, my parent's garage.  The kids loved decorating this cute little tree.

Bam Bam has been enamored with nutcrackers this year and just had to have this cute one from Home Depot.

Its becoming quite a challenge keeping the little ones away from the  hidden presents throughout the house and hidden in closets.  Thank goodness Christmas is almost here!!
