It is that time of year again. Where we trade our fall coats for our winter parkas, shoes for boots, the cool weather has become crisp cold and even had a few days where the white stuff has fallen. One of the things about living in Canada is experiencing all 4 season. There are many people who will complain about this time of year and I will admit I wish winter was a 6-8 week thing but I also know my perspective will dictate my attitude. There are many things I love about this time of year – finally pulling out my boots that have been neglected for the past 6 months, cozy sweaters, wearing lots of layers, the red cups that are back, Christmas decorating going on in stores, Christmas shopping. See even making that short list I am already getting excited for all that is to come.
I am in full birthday planning mode over here with my little mans First birthday party this weekend but I am itching to get decorating for Christmas. This year I am thinking of changing the “colour theme” of my tree. It has been a few years since I got new ornaments and I am thinking of a less traditional tree this year and more classy. I do two trees – a full size one and a little one which is usually my fun, edgy tree that one day I hope will be my kids tree that they can decorate to their little hearts content. So I since I haven’t actually started “decking the halls” I have been doing some shopping both online and in the stores for some new ornaments and such. Here are some of the ones I really like this year!
Have you started putting up your Christmas decorations and tree yet? What is your colour scheme or theme this year? Well I am off to finish the last minute party details then make it through the party and the weekend and I will be unpacking all my Christmas stuff. Have a great weekend and enjoy the snow! (if you have some like we do)
