Christmas is up: Outside!

Another wonderful thing about being home over the Thanksgiving holiday, was that we were able to get all of our decorations put up, inside and out!  We'll start with outside though...
Our town home from the front:
Here is a close up of my wreath.  I had a red berry wreath that was a little thin, so I wrapped a sparkly berry vine around it, then hot glued pine cones to it!  For the monogram, I modge-podged a wooden letter with scrap booking paper and then hung it from a ribbon.  YEAH for finally doing a craft!
Kyle wanted to add a little flair to our lights, so he bought more strands and put them in a tree and bush in our "side yard".  I love it, the more twinkle lights the better!
And the whole look:
Hope y'all are enjoying your decorations for Christmas as well!

I am not a wreath common-sewer, but yours looks stupendous. Leave it up to the 'artsy' one in the family to 'craft up' a wreath. Love you kiddo. ez

Grandpa Stout left us a 5 foot Santa that would look ever so good on your roof. It is lighted and everything.
