Fantasy In Lights

I’m still a child at heart when it comes to Christmas. One of my very favorite things to do during this time of year is look at Christmas lights. Well, Callaway Gardens is a Christmas light lover’s paradise. They don’t call it Fantasy In Lights for nothing. It really is spectacular. A ride through the park enjoying the lights and singing along to the carols is just the right thing to help my spirits soar. My family and I are headed there tonight. I can't wait! Hopefully, I can capture some pictures to share later.

Our Stockings Are Hung By The Chimney With Care

This year will be the first year my hubby and I will be at our house for Christmas day. I’m very excited about this! It did mean that we needed our own stockings, though. Growing up, my sister and I always had stockings filled with wonderful little surprises. Even though we’re all grown up, my mom still makes us a stocking. It’s a special treat I've come to treasure over the years. Since it’s so important to me, I knew hubby and I needed our very own stockings for our mantle. It just so happened that my mom (she’s really, really good-if it’s out there, she can find it) found these at TJ Maxx-they match our Christmas tree skirt. How perfect! I can’t wait to see what little treasures will fill my stocking. I still have to pick up a few little treasures for hubby’s. I am so glad hubby and I will be starting this tradition. It's little traditions like this that make Christmastime so special!
