Christmas House Tour Part One: Oh, Christmas Tree!

So you know I love christmas right?

Well, I really, really do.

So much so that our one car garage is stacked floor to ceiling with just Christmas decor.

Even though we have so many decorations, we aren't putting them up this year.

You see, we literally just moved in November.

We hardly have our house put together, and just the thought of bringing more boxes in makes me dizzy.

But....

It wouldn't be christmas without a tree. 

So, we picked the smallest out of the 3(!!!) trees we own and put it up. 

{1 is for all our childhood ornaments and is over 15 feet tall, and the other two are just decorative, smaller ones.}

It  was simple.

It was pre-lit, and all of it's ornaments were in its own container.

It took my mom and I about an hour to throw together.

and I love it.

Christmas just wouldn't feel right without a tree. 

So, without further adieu,

I introduce,

Our Family Christmas tree for 2012:

So, what do you think?

We purchased the tree, ornaments and ribbon all from hobby lobby years ago. The tree skirt was given to us.

And obviously, we haven't done hardly any christmas shopping, if you can't tell from the lack of presents under the tree

...next weekend hopefully!

By the way, with the tree up, a few decorations out, and the 20*temps (Highly unusual for Texas), it's finally beginning to feel like Christmas!

So, this week, I am going to share more christmas posts.

(think more house tour and some DIY decorations)
