25 Days of Christmas - Day 8: Decor and More...


Who loves Christmas decor?   I DO!   I DO!

I love our Christmas Village. Its something we started back when we were dating, we would buy a piece (or pieces, we have a habit of going overboard on Christmas) each year and its grown to be a big village. But sometimes it can be a bit of a hassle since we don't have a great designated area. Right now its on my large bookcase so it can be hard to see it. That being said we don't always put out all of our buildings or people because... well it would just seem a bit much.  I wanted to photograph a few key pieces of it and share it with you.

This guy is one from our first Christmas. He used to move, but he's kinda loud, and I'm certain the kitty babes would try to attack it if we let it run.

This Christmas Shoppe came from the GoodWill... At least I think it did... one of our buildings did and I think it was this one. Its pretty rad if you look in. You can see fake toys and stuff.... Pretty rad if you ask me.


This Santa, Child and Photographer always gets me. I just love it. Its so sweet. I wish it would snow here and I could see santa. Actually this is how I imagine old timey Christmas to be, ya know... back in the "It's a Wonderful Life" times.


Every Christmas Village NEEDS a Church, especially one that looks all old fashion-ey. This one is way cool in person, it has pews and everything. I can't remember off the top of my head if it has people. I feel like it does. I guess I'm just a sucker for lights in the building.... especially the ones that look like stained glass. :)

Oh and for good measure, since I haven't gotten any good photos of the tree yet, I can show you another few ornaments.  This year we went with themed ornaments. We have a ton of Disney ornaments, also, we buy a new special ornament every year. The first one was from our first Christmas as a couple (not married) and the second is our ornament from the year we were married.




P.S. Disney is a big part of us because we got married on the fiftieth anniversary of Disney. So yep... thats why most of our ornaments are Disney related. :)

  2. I love collecting sentimental ornaments too! We put things on our tree that aren't even ornaments because they remind us of a special event or trip. Stuff like a cool whistle from a clown museum, and a fish key chain from the first time we took our daughter to an aquarium :)
