| Our Kindergarten Team plus One has a progressive dinner every year. This year it was my turn for the main entree-chicken pot pie. Everyone outdoes themselves and we have a great time! | 
| My girls through the years... | 
| The Santa collection that I started when they were babies. | 
| We hung ornaments from command hooks in the archways this year. I wish I had stock in command hooks... | 
| Our manger scene-my mother bought the figures as a wedding gift for us in 1989 and my father-in-law made the manger. It is a treasure to us. | 
| Delaney drew the nativity scene on the canvas a few years ago. | 
| Delaney and I made the trees this year and glittered the houses. Simple and fun! | 
| Vintage postcards from my mom and sister that I clipped on to a floral arrangement. | 
| Some of our glittered houses... | 
| Delaney created these flowers as tags for her gifts to friends. She is soooooo clevah! | 
| A creche from Italy that was in our home growing up. I 've always loved it and am glad to have it on our mantel now. | 
| A beautiful ornament from Austria that my brother brought back for me. | 
| A painting that Delaney made last year in a class that we took-so cute! | 
| Delaney's girl scout troop made these nativity scenes from laundry scoops, leftover fabric and Christmas cards years ago. It is one of my favorite things! | 
| Shanley painted this as a gift many years ago. These are my most precious decorations. | 
| This photo went in the Christmas card this year- that haven't been mailed yet! | 
Merry Christmas to you all!
Now it is time for tubs, chaos and re-organization.
Happy New Year!
