It Really is Christmas Time

 

The Christmas Tree from the staircase this morning was particularly pretty when I came down.

Yes, I sleep upstairs at night with tree on.

I love the light and enjoy getting as much of it as possible before the end of the season!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Reminders of the season are everywhere.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Expecting bills in the poste, I put off going to the mailbox until later in the day. Et voila...what a stash of cards and a special wedding invitation for June. I have a plan and a place for all of those cards. It made my day for sure.

 

I've decorated more this year than ever before...two trees, garland and ribbons on the posts and staircase, a Winnie the Pooh Entourage on the landing, gifts under the tree, and a fire in the new poele!

 

I've always said that this amazing place feels like Christmas all year long. This year, more than ever, I wanted us to be more Christmas than Christmas.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Leaving Christmas Eve for Paris, means that when I return in the New Year everything will be as I left it. Christmas Magic will be everywhere.

And, I have some other magic in the making too. More on that another time.

 

Happy Saturday!
