Christmas in Seattle

I've wanted to start a blog for a while, so I thought why not start it out by giving you a tour of our Christmas decorations this year. Enjoy!!

BooMamaChristmasTour

Here's the tour of our condo:


This is our mini tree in the living room. It's my first live tree ever. I love the smell of it!!


Space Needle Ornament!! Definitely one of my favorites. I got it during my first trip to Seattle, with the hopes that I would live here someday...and now I do!!


My mom got me this sweater ornament. I have a whole collection now. I hope to have a Sweater Tree one year!!


My stocking: Polka dots and snow flakes.


Marcy's stocking: Peace on Earth
We had a Stocking Decorating Night over Thanksgiving Break. I love how they turned out!!


My Coke Bottle Santa - I love this! I got it my freshman year at Texas Tech.


This is the silver tree in the craft room. It's Raider-ific!! It's decorated in red, silver, and white.


A close up of the Noel ornament on the silver tree. This one is my favorite.


I made this wreath. I saw it last year on The Martha Stewart Show, and I've been waiting all year to make it. I got the wrapping paper from the Container Store's Wrapping Wonderland (FUN!). I love how it turned out!!


This is my nativity scene. I love it and I think it goes really well with on the mantle with the tin star collection.


My mom made this advent calendar. Isn't it cute! She did a great job.


Sleigh Bells Ring! I got this sign at one of my favorite craft fairs in Lubbock! I miss Texas craft fairs!!


Our Gingerbread House! Delicious and Fun!!
