This year we decided to take the whole Christmas decorating a little easy. With being well into my second trimester, I felt like decorating a lot, but I wasn't sure how I'd feel tearing everything down come the end of January. But the house feels Christmasy enough for us, and that's all that matters.
First off is the kitchen, I put my gingerbread garland over the sink...
Changed the table linens, and candle topper, and added a snowman my mom made to the wall.
You can't see it very good in the photo, but I added some berry bunches inside the china cupboard, and put my Christmas magnets on the fridge.
At the museum, every year during the Christmas tours, we have a different theme. They also have an ornament to go with the theme. Joe and I have one for each year he's been here as the caretaker. Right now they are all on this wreath, but I think we are going to have to upgrade before next year; it's pretty full!
I switch out the 'art' in this frame for every holiday/season to keep things fresh.
We decided to just do a 3 foot tree this year to keep things simple and easy to put away later. Since I'm pregnant, we decided to decorate it with our baby ornaments from when we were little. It turned out adorable!

Lastly, I added some poinsettias to my old bucket, and put my Christmas hippo out, he is definitely my favorite!
I hope everyone is enjoying their holiday season so far, I know we are! Now, off to bake more cookies! :)
