This is truly the most wonderful time of the year. It is a time of hope, and in the air there is a feeling of the miraculous.
Our decorations are simple. They're pretty much the same every year, with a bit of a twist here and there. Every decoration is like an old cherished friend.
The wreath on our door
A deer sits silently in the middle of a mirrored lake
Every Christmas Princess must have a crown . . .
And every package, a beautiful bow
Halls bedecked with garlands
You have seen these before in photos from Christmases past. I love these present balls made by Wendy Addison.
This little fellow makes me laugh. Do you see the little money bag he has lifted toward heaven?
We hide this golden nest every year in our Christmas tree
I think this is my favorite image of Mary and Jesus. I love his expression. He is in Mommy Heaven.
I hope you've enjoyed the snippets of our holiday home.

Love your white feather tree - the header of your blog is very pretty - might I invite you to see mine? Just becaue I love finding pretty Christmas/Holiday pics and sharing them.
I love a white Christmas theme, but there are family members hellbent on red and green so we compromise in different rooms. I haven't gotten around to too many good pics of decorations yet as I'm busy with my shop and recuperating from surgery, but I'll post pics of little treasures, too - soon I hope.
Just an invitation to you and all your readers. Happy Holidays!! Scroll to the second post on the blog for what decorations I have had up.

Oh Nancy....your decorations are so elegant and sophisticated! What a beautiful and gracious home!

Bonjour Nancy,
First I want to thank you for your lovely email about meeting some day; we will do that! I just had to shut down the computer for a couple of days as I didn't do anything else anymore. Now I am catching up with blogposts and yours is one of the best! Haha, I can tell I have seen hundreds about Christmas by now. I love the way you make your photos, I already told you that my eyes think you are the LadureƩ in blogland, I cannot tell you what my favorite photo is, they all are competing for that first place! Enjoy this lovely holiday season!

What an elegant Christmas you present, Nancy! Simply gorgeous. I love the idea of hiding that golden nest each year.
Now I need to dig out our ornaments from the depths of the attic...
The Deer and Baby Jesus are just precious. My daughter and I LOVE YOUR BLOG AND PICTURE SOOOOOOOO..much. We will try to capture pictures of our frozen creek and the partially frozen river and waterfalls today.
Holiday Blessings to you and yours,

So BEAUTIFUL Nancy. Especially, I like the silver and red sway hanging from the ceiling and the white caped mannequin and the the wreath around the angel......All so pretty.
