It's beginning look a lot like

...Christmas at the Carter house!!! Take a tour via blog pictures...welcome to our home!

Jimmy did a GREAT job with his best Clark Griswald impression with his addition of the "candy cane" around the tree!

And the front door, with my little pretty wreath. I still have my eye on a bigger one, but am probably going to wait until after the season and they go on sale!

The upstairs tree--the one you can see from the street!

Next stop- the dining room. Changed the stuff in the vase! Added a centerpiece thing from my grandma's house.

And new plates- duh. Gotta fill the plate rack based on the season. Oh and those candles? Just took some red ribbon and taped it on the candle to make it look like a candy cane. Yes, free again.

And my favorite. The china cabinet. I love it. Best yet, all free because I just used leftover ornaments!

Then we go downstairs to the family room. Tree #2. This was from my condo, but it fits nice here! And then some lighted garland.

Finally- the fireplace. I love it. And really cannot believe how different it looks from a year and a half ago...and really even last Christmas! I'm still working on a plan for how to make us new stockings that are awesome.

And here are the dogs- just so happy for holiday time!

Ok actually, Willy hates his antlers, but still, how cute are they? :)

With that said- happy holidays from the Carter family!! Wishing you lots of happiness and fun during this happy time of the year!
