My Christmas Home...

Welcome to my STAR filled home!
My Christmas tree is no exception to my love of stars...
Stars have such an amazing meaning
and significance this time of year!

My bigger stars I got when we lived in Germany...
definitely one of the top things I took from our life there!

Speaking of STARS...
look who's peeking out from behind the tree...
STARRY CAT!!!

I love me some 'C's' too...

Here is our special advent Jesse Tree...
we've got an apple, rainbow, world, ram,
cradle, tent, colorful coat,
and some other favorite Bible story symbols!

Here is my chalkboard proclaiming the good news!

Our fireplace...
stockings...
and advent log!

Happy Birthday, Jesus!

Despite all my lovely and special decorations...
these are my favorite...
the decorations made by the sweet and precious hands
of my angel...

Most beautiful wreath I have ever seen!

Merry CHRISTmas to you!

Let me know if you share your Christmas home...
