Deck the Halls

Here is the Christmas explosion that has happened at our house. It is all done except for the few Christmas Krinkles that have not come in yet. What do you think? It makes me so happy I can barely stand it. On a quick adoption note, I think that we may get to travel in late December now. It is not definite, but a really good possibility!!! That would put us at 3 months from referral to travel versus 3.5. If that is right, 15+ days will get shaved off the above counter! That would be so awesome!! To see all of the Christmas pictures, go to the Flickr link on the side.

Your house is so beautiful, especailly now that you have let your inner Mrs. Claus out. I squealed when I read that you may travel in December. That is awesome. And what a way to start out the New Year!!!

December travel!! AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

Gorgeous home, love the decorations. Especially the table. What a pity you won't be there to enjoy on Christmas Day. But wait - you'll be holding Lucy instead!

Christmas with our girls, what a blessing.

Your house is amazing! I looks like something you'd see in the magazines. Just beautiful. Are you a professional decorator? If not, you should really think about it. Wow! Beautiful!

Ann said...

Wow that looks awesome. And since you need some stuff do to kill time, you could come to my house and decorate. You did such a beautiful job. Now bring on LUCY!!

Rachel said...

Everything looks beautiful, Kelly. Now I can't wait to put my tree up. Your photos have definitely helped put me in the Christmas spirit early.

Jenny and Matt said...

Your Christmas stuff looks INCREDIBLE!!! Just perfect! And how exciting that there's a possibility you might get to travel sooner. I hope you get that great news soon!

Oh, I'm so excited for you and the possiblity of traveling in December. Yippie! I LOVE your walls! We did the alternating square thing with orange and hot pink in my older daughter's room, but they're layered instead of checkerboarded. I love your colors! I'm so jealous. My husband (and the rest of my family) just cringe when I start talking about decorating for Christmas. I'm ready NOW and I've got some boxes out, but my family is a no-go. So, I have to wait until the week of Thanksgiving. I really hope you're able to travel in December. You have a good reason to decorate early!

Now this house is more old world. With I had 2-homes to decorate. Isn't it fun!!! Next year will be different, nik-naks will have to be put up! Yeah!
