Technically, for Catholics, Christmas doesn’t begin until December 24th. We are now in the season of Advent. We celebrate each evening around our kitchen table by lighting the Advent Wreath.
I have things hidden in several nooks and crannies in the kitchen.
The living room is one of my favorite rooms. It seems to accept Christmas so gracefully.
Our traditional Frasier Fir.
For years the mantle hosted the Santa Collection
But take a closer look...
intermingling of the species!
A selection of some of my favorite children's Christmas books.
I had a small dinner last night. I took these when I was getting set up.
I should get something up abut that soon.
The family room historically hosted the Snowmen
But yes!
Look at me and the co-mingling!
This guy is new, a gift last year from a co-worker.
Hell, even the bathrooms get dolled up.
The sunroom looks pretty even at night.
Now I'm off to explore all the other Holiday Home Tours! Merry Christmas!!!!

I love your mingling snowmen and Santas! Your whole house is like a picture.
Inter-mingling snowmen and Santas? You are so daring. ;-)
I have serious Spode Christmas plate envy now that I've seen your table. I have a couple of serving pieces that my late mother-in-law gave me, but that's it. Perhaps I should get a few more...
Ah, it's not really Christmas without the Spode is it? I think I need to pull mine out despite having declared this year a "low-key" holiday season. (Translation: there's not much to post on the Holiday Home Tour" despite the new casa this year.) Then again, your pictures are inspirational. It's not too late yet!
I love that you have the Spode plates--your table looks gorgeous!
Your whole house is beautiful, and I love your Christmas china...one of my aunts had that pattern (or something similar) when I was little. I'm tearing up with nostalgia!
Your house is beautiful!
Did someone make the "dear santa" plate? I love it!
You have a gorgeous house. I love all the little Santas and snowmen. The Queen herself would feel comfortable at your table. Hope you, the Daughters Precious, the Saint and the Terrorist have a very Merry Christmas!
Your hose if gorgeous. I love all the little Santas and snowmen. The Queen herself would feel right at home at your table. Hope you, the Daughters Precious the Saint and the Terrorist have a very Merry Christmas!
