Since i already was in the christmas tree thread we have already put up the tree and decorations this past week. Besides my obession with the perfect full and tall tree i have decked out the house and it has all come together quite well. My decorations are pretty much in the burgandy, hunter green and gold color scheme. I have my grandfathers old train set under the tree as well as a beautiful navitiy set in the entry way table. Along with all the red, green and white cutsey old fashion decorations i cant ever get rid of.

I hang tear drop decorated weaths and lighted mantle swags over the mantle and door ways. I bought last yr at the after-christmas sale at wal mart this HUGE outdoor weath that is pre strung and put it up above the garage door along with the dangling white lites and mix it with traditional colored strands outside.

We really deck the halls every yr around here. My brothers and i can see who can outdo the other each yr I am now on the search for the old fashion tree lights that are now walk way path light stakes. We also put out the yard display items.

The housing development i live in , i think we secertly try to out do one another every yr , like my brothers and myself.
