The Stage is set

 With just 2 days left to go I took some random pictures of us and Christmas around the house.

Here are my boys LOVE them

Yes another year and I could see the fine lines in this picture :)

My Emma

Our new addition Roxy but don't let her innocent little face fool ya

Emma and I went to the Nutcracker at Hult last weekend.  We were both just mesmerized with the whole experience.  Definitely a repeat for next year.

A surprise gift basket from a friend containing little things she knew I would like.   Very special to me.

We had a monogram ornament a couple years ago and it broke.  I was so happy it was replaced with this one this year.

One of my favorites... notice the owl in the background.  Lots of owl decor this month with Emma's owl themed birthday and some additions to her bedroom decor.

Emma has outgrown Santa and Hunter is leaning that way.  

I love the ornaments that are full of glitter and sparkle.

Piero One has this shoe for the bottom of your dining room chairs.  Would love to add that to our decor for next year.

Emma and Hunter take turns changing the hand.  As you can see they are ahead a day.  I wonder if they think they can trick us ;)

The nativity set. 

Costco had beautiful poinsettias this year.

Holiday wine toppers

My mother in law gave me these sweet angels and I love them.  They greet you when you come in the front door.

Our tree.
As much as I love sitting by the tree and admiring it's beauty I'm so over vacuuming the needles. 

The greatest gift is from above

So many memories with this elf.  Once when Emma was 4 we caught her talking to "Henry" the elf Christmas eve telling him not to bring Hunter anything because he was really bad and she was good.

Theres those owls again

Can't forget the Reindeer
