The Clark Family Christmas Home Tour

I love Christmas time!  Fellowship with family and friends, baking, and giving gifts.  I am so excited for Kaylee's first Christmas.  We are not getting her a whole lot of gifts....mostly cause she will not understand what is really going on.  Next year we will go all out! 

I love to decorate our little home at Christmas time.  This year we put our stuff out the week before Thanksgiving.  I know its not really what you are suppose to do, and this was our first time to do it.  I have to say I am so glad we did.  We travel so much during Thanksgiving seeing family that when we get home on Sunday we are all wore out.  It was nice to come home and just relax.  Here is what the Clark family home looks like this Christmas:

The living room

Family Stockings: the one thing I regret not doing when we built our home is not putting in a fireplace. This is the only time of year I miss having a fireplace. But we do live in Houston, and its only cold a hand full of times. I will just have to make do with our stockings on the window seal.

 The reason for the season:

The Tree:

I have been going back and forth on what I wanted to do as far as Kaylee's ornament.  My Mom started a collection for each of us kids, and I wanted to do the same.  I think I am going to do mine a little different.  I am going to frame a picture in an ornament frame every year with the year and her age.  I have not done her first one yet, because I want it to be the picture of her on Christmas day.

Merry Christmas to all!
