Some of my favorite Christmas decorations

I love decorating for Christmas. However this year did not put out every decoration. The Christmas Village stayed packed up. Except for the ones Greg put in his room. When I packed up the decorations I condensed boxes and organized them a little better for next year.

Every year the kids get to pick out a new Christmas ornament. I write their name and the year on the ornament.They also pick out a new village piece each year. This year we did not get new village pieces as we have so many. When Evy and Greg have a place of their own they will have a tree full of ornaments and a nice Christmas Village.

Some of my favorite decorations are my wreath, Nativity set, tree angel and snow globes. We had a lot of grape vines at our house in the Valley. One year my dad made wreaths out of the grape vines. I decorated this one and hang in on my front door every year. My dad and Renee gave me our Nativity set for Christmas many many years ago. It is one of the first decorations I put out. I love having an angel on top of my tree. This one is from Target that I bought about 8 years ago, but I love her. I put all the other angel ornaments and star ornaments at the top of the tree. Lastly, I love snow globes. My mom gave me my first one about 10 years ago. And I have been collecting them ever since. I don't have a picture of it unfortunately.
