o christmas tree

We got a new Christmas tree this year! I've been wanting one for a long time now and this one is about 4x as big as the $12 Walmart one I've owned for the last 6 years. It still has lots of room for new ornaments, but the budget says we have to wait till next year :)

Here's a sweet little bird ornament

And a classy looking reindeer

I made the ruffle tree skirt (which is why I didn't post tree pics sooner).

I saw several tutorials online for hotgluing a ruffle skirt, but I decided to sew mine.

I used 8 yards of fabric for all the ruffles and I love how it turned out!

Kevin always does a good job decorating the house with lights too!

Hope you and your loved ones are having a wonderful Christmas season!
