Christmas at the Thornton's


Just a little look into Christmas at our house...

Ever yearwe always get a huge Christmas Tree that normally we can't even fit in the house... This year since we decided to get one that actually fits, which means smaller. I can tell you it was so hard trying to make this one look as tall as the others... so go ahead and spend the extra money and get the large Christmas Tree. It looked tall at the lot but when I got it home I wanted to return it. Needless to say it only took me abot an hour and a half to get it decorated.

A fun fact about my Christmas Tree Decor:

My grandmother loves to decorate Christmas Trees and she noramlly has a few around her house with different themes. So as a wedding gift, she and I went to shopping for my Christmas Tree Decor. So every year when I put up my decor I think about her! It's a fun venture to go on... and ever where we add a little more to the tree. So this tree has great memories everytime I put it up!



I have always wanted a fireplace to hang our stockings on, so this year we bought a electric fireplace (which completely looks real in this photo). I repainted it and this year my stockings were "hung by the fire"!
