It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
at the Henry house!
Thanks to my mom I have a completed Willow Tree Nativity scene which I absolutely love! Trey and Grace love it too, so much that I had to move it to a higher location. Unfortunately one of the little lambs lost an ear when it was being chased by Mary, that's how the only witness (Trey) described the incident.
We've actually had a few cold nights lately which means hot drinks. Kenny likes a little whip cream on his coffee. He even takes a can to work and uses it during the day....only Kenny.
Santa Clause at our local Y. I just haven't had it in me to brave the mall Santa this year. Grace wouldn't go near this Santa, I can't imagine what she would do if she saw the mall Santa, probably crawl up the walls like a spider monkey to get away from him. She just doesn't care for strange men, which doesn't bother me one bit. Trey was a little timid at first but after he saw Kenny talking to him he walked over and hopped in his lap and asked him for an airplane.
Our 2nd year with a Christmas tree. I haven't tried to keep this one looking pretty. Trey and Grace love to redecorate it on a daily basis. I'll save the designer tree for their teenage years.
The stockings are hung, maybe one day Santa will bring me a mantle or even better a new fireplace like the one I saw in Southern Living.....something to think about Kenny, I mean Santa.

We don't have a mantle either, which makes things interesting for stockings. It looks like you got yours hung well though! -Adrienne
Love the Christmas house tour! It cracked me up about the Nativity lamb having his ear broken only b/c something similar happened with my Demadaco piece; we have the one with the Mom and Dad holding the new baby and I did put it high on a shelf but Cole threw a football up there and the only thing remaining is the Mom and Dad holding a baby's head... isn't that sweet?! :) Merry Christmas to you!
PS-I forgot to tell you that after a life-threatening toss down the stairs the Joseph from our nativity set now has no hands. Maybe we could put together a wounded set for all the victims. -Adrienne
If you guys put together a wounded Nativity scene....can I have it? I think it would be the final touch on my Christmas decorations...mine are getting less and less classy as the years go by...
