FINALLY!!!! We are officially in "Christmas Mode" at the Parkinson residence. The tree is up, the stockings are out, the advent calendar is ready, and my sparkly snow leopard is decked out in her Santa suit! Our Christmas music has been reacquainted with the iTunes program and the dishtowels and napkins have been replaced with seasonal items. All that's left to do is bake and shop. Perhaps we will begin the latter activity today....
For now, here are some pictures from last night:
 |
| Phil was my "putting up the tree" sweetie. He did a great job - completing the task with lots of holiday cheer. Check out that Santa hat! I didn't even ask him to wear one! |
 |
| Have you ever seen a reindeer cook?! I was busy in the kitchen making the pizza dough and baking some peanut butter brownies :) |
 |
| Phil always insists that I am the decoration girl. But I always insist that he is the "star" man. HOORAY for teamwork! |
 |
| This is my new favourite decoration. How clever is Mr. Tim Horton? SO CLEVER! How thoughtful is my Daddy? SO THOUGHTFUL! |
 |
| Our guests arrived with holiday cheer, too!!! Emily was sporting some antlers like me and Shannon opted for a sweet little elf hat :) Thanks for your enthusiasm ladies!!!! |
Waking up this morning to a living room decorated for Christmas was THE ULTIMATE way to start my Friday. I can't wait to cozy up with Phillip tonight and admire the tree all lit up :)
HAPPY HOLIDAY SEASON, Y'ALL!!!!!
XOXO
Oh my goodness, you are adorable!
