Abby's Way: santa

It's that time again!

Pretty sure this is my favorite

time of year,

the lights, the glitter,

food, friends and family.

My decorating usually starts

with the Santa Search.

Since our first Christmas together

we have been adding to our collection.

( i apologize for the glare on the tv)

Some Santas have been gifts, some are Dollar Store finds,

and thrift store treasures, but ONLY ONE per year.

He is always special, and usually

represents that year.

This one is the biggest one so far...

kind of like the year we have had,

and I love the way he is looking up, like

there is so much more...

such a sweet face,

we had to make him our

2013 Santa.

..there has to be something magical about

Christmas....

these two never share ;)

Happy Monday

He is one of my favorites.

I am going to spend the next couple of days getting ready for the big guy! I have baking I haven’t started, presents I haven’t wrapped and still a little more shopping to do. Its like this every year, I plan to be completely organized by the beginning of December but it never works out that way.

At least my snowbaby tree is up... each one is so sweet and special to us. My sister in law has given us one each Christmas for many many years :) so we are now able to decorate our tree using mostly snowbabies.

It all gets a little crazy around here, but with the tree lights on and the day fading away we really enjoy it!

Hope you enjoy the next few days getting your nest ready for the Holidays!

Bye for now,

Abby
