I love looking at Christmas decorations inside and outside any home. When my kids were little, we would leave church after our Wednesday night meeting and, they knew that we would take the long way home during Christmas time. I just couldn’t resist seeing all the lights.
I’m still that way. It’s just one of my favorite things about the holidays– beautiful decorations and lights. I always loved going to a Christmas pilgrimage of homes when women agreed to open their homes and beautiful decorations to the public.
These days, we can visit any home that is willing via the internet. I’m sharing two links below full of beautiful Christmas decorated homes.
Every day this week you can click on A Stroll Thru Life blog and find several new houses to see.
I love following Thistlewood Farms. You can find her home tour here.
I don’t have a professional photographer, but I’m sharing a few things from our home.

| Hopefully, next year the area around the fireplace will have built-in shelves. |
 |
| I loved using this old sled instead of a skirt. This is the first year since my first husband passed away that I’ve put up a big tree. It has been fun, and every ornament on it has special meaning. We hope to add to the ornaments as we travel and experience more together. |
 |
| This is a nativity scene from Dr. T’s family. Most of mine are still in Texas. I always enjoyed putting one in almost every room. |
 |
| One of my favorite little chairs with a vintage pillow. |
 |
| I love the idea of a small scene on a cake stand that so many are doing. |
 |
| I’ve collected Santa mugs for several years. Some are very old. |
 |
| The dining room is ready! |
 |
| Hanging the pickle on the tree reminds me of Randy!! I always hang a redbird nearby now. |
 |
| Our special traveling partners are very generous!! I loved getting this box of goodies!! |
 |
| I got these ornaments from my mother and put them on the small tree in the game room. They just fit over the lights on the tree. |
 |
| We watch TV here most evenings so I wanted a small tree in this space! |
I’d love to see some pictures of how you decorate!! You can share in the comments!
Merry Christmas!
