O Tannenbaum?

This year we wasted no time and put up our Christmas decorations the day after Thanksgiving! Our apartment is pretty small but we fit in as much holiday cheer as we could manage. 

A Christmas tree in the corner:

Stockings over the couch:

Christmas lights over the bookshelf:

Ornaments and a tiny nativity on the shelf:

And an advent calendar made very recently by yours truly! (to be filled with Christmas scriptures and treats shortly)

And, because we have a baby, here's how our tree will look anytime Nikolai is awake: 

Coffee tables sure make good barricades! 

We're very excited for this holiday season!
