LMAO Mandy. And Santa says "Good Morning" to you too and wants to know if you've been a good little girl this year? Ho Ho Ho!!

I found Mr. Santa at a store near by last year called "Oops". It's a discount store and they only wanted $40.00 for him. So I tucked him under my arm and headed out home with him.

Sheryl, your home is beautiful before AND after!!! I understand about not putting everything out some years because it does take a lot of time to turn around and put it away. I love the Santa!!! What a deal you got on him!!! Too cute!!!

Thank you ladies for the compliments! Really though...this year I must say that I thank Mandy and my BBBS Little for the insentive and push to decorate.

Our Little will be here a couple days before Christmas to visit and I didn't want her to be here w/out seeing Christmas stuff up. And Mandy, she understands that I'm normally in a pretty bad downer during the holidays but I made her a promise Id decorate for her.

Ya know girlie, while i was putting up my tree, i was thinking of you all the time, i knew you were putting yours up this past weekend, and kept saying, it's you & me on this one Sheryl. Wine in one hand, figurenes in the other. LOL

I first decorated the tree all silver, it was done, so we sat down, and kept looking at the tree, something looked so not right LOL - i took the whole thing down again, and started all over, now it's decorated with the victorian stuff ive had for about 6 years now, i just dont seem to get tired of it.

Your little is going to love your tree, specially all those gorgeous Santa's - Sheryl, did you name your big Santa?
I have 3 and all have names LMAO

I noticed your Victorian tree in the background on the picture with the girls. It's beautiful!! No, big Santa don't have any name yet - ha haaa ha

And indeed, you are correct. Wine in one hand and an ornament in the other was exactly the way it all went up! Most likely it too will be exactly the way it all comes down.

Sheryl I first want to comment that your room is beautiful before and after.. You have tastefully decorated. I myself collect santas, snowmen to. I have a village that I normally put together each year, this year I am not going to and am going easy on the decorating.. I am finishing my tree as we speak, I will post later. I do a victorian theme ..


PS I LOVE THAT SANTA!!! lol

Sheryl, thanks for sharing.
I LOVE your floors and fireplace. VERY nice!
You couch looks eerily familiar. I think it's a dead match to mine.

I love your Santas... I have snowmen and they're not out yet either... but dh brought them in yesterday and told me HE wants to see them. LOL He isn't real big on Christmas decorating but he does enjoy the snowman collection surprisingly.
