Christmas season has officially begun

The Christmas season has begun. On Wednesday, we decorated the inside of the house. We have greenery and lights on the windows but the lights didn't turn out too well.

Here is our door to the screened in porch. This picture turned out better.

Grandma and Grandpa are here for a short visit. Today we made a gingerbread house that Grandma brought. The children helped to decorate it.

The children thought that it was the most beautiful gingerbread house in the world. This is a view of the front.

This is the back. The children had a great time decorating it. They look forward to eating it. Already it has lasted more than last year's gingerbread house (which was eaten the evening it was made!).

uh oh, now I think I'm officially a year behind in gingerbread houses.

I don't decorate until Dec. 1st.

Which is ~gulp~ tomorrow.

Well, I wouldn't have started so early either but Grandma and Grandpa were coming for a visit and the children wanted to have the house decorated for them.

Karen, your wallpaper looks a lot like what we have in our dining room. Is it Waverly? We put ours up in 1996.

We didn't put up the wallpaper ourselves. We bought the house in 2001, but it was built in 1996 so it maybe the same wallpaper.
