Wow Jackie...now I know why you have that job at work with the snack table...you do an impeccable job decorating! I especially liked the mantle and the little blue tree (which fits the color of the walls in that room well).
I have to admit, I am a fan of that Christmas song and am guilty of belting it out if I am around when it's on. I used to hate it too, but it has grown on me!
P.S. Drove by your house the other night and was AMAZED at how many lights. George did a great job!
George is a little like Clark Griswald.haha!My kids want us to do the lights too but it is way too much work.It looks so pretty though.
I like the little tree too. Very cute!
Wow, I am laughing and laughing. Last Christmas is my ABSOLUTE least favorite song...maybe even on earth! I hate it. It makes me laugh everytime I hear it. It is so bad! Glad someone else feels the same way!
Yeah that song is awful. I also dislike that christmas song about the kid buying his mother shoes. Awful.
Oh, I like the Christmas Shoes song. In fact, I can often be found crying during that song. Sappy? Yes!
George is awesome!
