Check this out!!! This is my mom and dad's house. I love seeing all her Christmas decorations! It's where I got all my ideas from. Of all her beautiful decor, the stockings are my favorite! She has one for all her 7 kids, their 5 spouses and her 12 grand kids (and one for her and my dad) which brings the grand total to 27. Isn't it just a beauty to behold!




I really like how her tree has big things on it like:
this bear and:


this old stocking of my dad's. My grandmother made stockings for all her kids and grand kids and we used them up until a couple of years ago. I used to love looking at all of them, actually I still do!


RAEGAN'S PARTY:

It was at a pottery painting store. Check out all the pottery in the background. It was a little nerve racking to have Lukie in there!



I love how all the girls all decided to pick the same doggy to paint!


Rebecca likes to use her time wisely so she decided to paint a couple ornaments for her tree. You did such a good job Rebecca!
Even J got in on the action when I asked him to paint me a snowman. He's got the tongue out and everything. That's some serious concentration! How do you know if your husband really loves you? See if he'll paint you a snowman. Thanks honey!
This is a picture from Rae's birthday. We came in to sing to her and found all three of them in bed together(Lukie always goes to their room when he wakes up). How cute! And the girls both wanted to put up lights in their room so we let them.

Your mom's house is truly beautiful when decorated for Christmas. The stockings are my favorite part too.

All those stockings...what a beautiful sight! I LOVE Christmas decorations. Mellie, could your family get any cuter??? I guess it could if you had another one! :) Love you!
