creative christmas

since we will be in arizona for christmas this year, e decided it would be best to forgo a christmas tree. i was a little saddened by the prospect of no tree, but decided that i could get creative and still enjoy some of our lovely ornaments.

so here is my simple attempt at making our home feel festive and fun without hanging anything on fresh, green pine. :)


this is our christmas tree cluster. :)


my version of the nativity, simple emphasis on the christ-child. and stryker's "stocking" makes me laugh. poor kid, if only he knew. :)

tree or no, it will be a very merry christmas!
