Evergreen, twinkle lights, candles,
rich foods and deserts.
Making merry with sweet stories, heartfelt music, and making gifts for loved ones.
Red packages built into homes for stuffed reindeer.
Company here. Guests there.
Friends. Family. Friends. Family.
A time to see almost everyone.
Drinks, laughter, stories shared, gifts given.
A time for thinking of others.
A time to focus on creating light during the darkest days of the year.
Days that are full to the brim with merriment, that tends to last long into the night as well.
This is Christmas.
oh the reindeer homes are so sweet. i loved the grouping of sheep ornaments all on one bough. a lot of our ornaments are animals, and quinn still likes to put families of birds together, the frogs together, etc. the photos really capture the comfort and coziness of your home. looks like a beautiful holiday!
ReplyDeletethank you so much! the reindeer homes were probably my favorite part of the entire holiday... so sweet and special. i love to see how they choose to group the ornaments. i love that you have many animals and that they are grouped in "families". what a wonderful thought!
