Christmas Tour of Homes


The welcoming committee invites you in and please make yourself comfortable!


Help yourself to some yummy goodies.


Would you like a cup of tea, hot cider or cocoa? Sorry, no coffee today.


Last year I got a new Nativity set for Christmas and was excited to display it this year.


We don't have a fireplace so I hang the stocking on the shelf in the corner. My kids (24, 21, 17) made it a point to let me know they still want them filled this year!

The tree


This basket holds the Christmas cards/letters we receive. When I got it out of the closet, it still had last year's cards. I kept them in so people think we have a lot of friends!


Thanks for visiting my home during BooMama's Christmas Tour of Homes.

Please leave your name in the basket......

for the giveaway of luscious DOVE chocolate. Please let me know in your comment whether you prefer dark or milk chocolate.


May you and your family have a Merry Christmas!

Thanks for stopping by! My husband's parents still fill stockings for him, his brother and me! I guess we're never too old.

Thanks for stopping by my house! There were tooooo many to visit yesterday, so I picked randomly. I love the dark chocolate and i'm leaving my name in the basket. You're so sweet.

You didn't tell us what yummy goodies are in the basket? They look great.
