...decorating for the holidays




... since we live away from family it is really easy to keep the Christmas decorating to a bare minimum... when we hosted it was fun to go all out so it's not the lack of stuff but just the ease to go easy!

...and yesterday Chuck came home with an early gift he received!
A LIVE WREATH!
It's perfect on our front porch!
