Christmas Decor

I did it... I actually managed to hold off on decorating for Christmas until after Thanksgiving. Typically, I am big on waiting because I hate feeling like I'm wishing time away! But for some reason, this year I was so anxious to get started! It probably doesn't help that I don't have any real "Thanksgiving" decorations- that makes it a lot easier to pass right over it. I usually keep a pretty neutral color scheme- I am not a big fan of the typical red and green decorations. This year, it is a lot of burlap and metallics (gold and silver) plus some ivory. Here are a few things I've done around the house.

Our mantle:



(Ignore that cord-- it is gone now!)





Our table:




We are ready for our Christmas guests!! :) Now if only I could get my shopping finished...  



Bonus pictures- how cute are our sweet children?!
