This year, I've tried a few holiday decorating things differently.
I had grand plans for the barn again.
I even bought more lights since I'd already used last year's inside and I didn't want to give them up.
I was ready, but between the weather and other factors...it never happened.
I'm now thinking I need to start in the spring, or just anytime when I'm in the mood. My good moods and motivations can be fleeting these days.
Even so, we are looking beautiful and festive inside and out! For me, it's always about the light. I got so much great stuff last year, that except for the barn we were pretty much good to go.
Of course, the penguins are back.
They turned out to be easier than expected!
The robins are still inside and the candy canes haven't made it to their spot just yet.
I'd decided to turn everything on and go outside to wait for my Thiriet delivery this morning.
I'd hoped to capture the full front of the Chatette upstairs and down head on, but that didn't quite work out.
The upstairs tree just didn't translate as well from the street side of the window.
But, that's okay. I'll take my tree reflections with that Moon River Moon reflecting in the Lot any day of the week!
What did work out was my delivery arrived while I was out there running around in semi-darkness.
It was early, but actually perfect.
I think Maxim may have thought I was a little nuts!
It wouldn't be the first (or the last) time I've been considered the "crazy American!"
So far, Lola has been able to mark herself "SAFE from the decorating rampage," but I know she has concerns! Look at that expression on her face at the door!
Happy Saturday!
