Lori's Reflections: Welcome to my home…

  • Sandy · 3 years ago
    Your slide show was great. I loved the Naughty and Nice mugs! And the tall church. But you Nativity Set is beautiful. You should do a post about that - it looks like there's a story to tell there.

    What a beautiful home you have. Thank you for the invitation. You have two Christmas trees? Wow...
    I also like your presentation of it. Thank you for sharing.
    As for not spending Christmas home -- you have more decoration than I do :)

    Blessings on your day and always.

    The slide show was great! Everything is beautiful and very warm.
    Can we cut the "Happy Birthday Jesus" cake and drink some hot cocoa?

    Merry Christmas and thanks for inviting us over.

    Wonderful slide show and pictures! I love your tree, and I think I really *need* one of those Naughty mugs, where on earth did you find those? Too cute :)

    Just beautiful!! All we've gotten decorated around here is the Christmas tree, ah well.
  • Barb · 3 years ago
    This is exactly how I thought your home would look, Laurel Wreath. Beautiful and elegant. I absolutely love the photo of your tree through the window. It's all so warm and inviting, it makes me just want to drop in on you.

    That cup is too cute and I the angel door hanger is adorable.

    If this is "not much decorating" I can't imagine what it looks like when you do a lot of decorating. It's beautiful.

    Merry Christmas to you my sweet friend.

  • Barbara H. · 3 years ago
    Thanks so much for having us over and for the hot chocolate and biscotti. :) I loved the mugs! And the bath towels -- I forgot to even put those out! You have a lovely, welcoming home.

    Beautiful slideshow! I love the nativity set - is it from Israel? I saw one like it at the Lutheran church where Care Bear attends preschool. I have to figure out a way to afford it!

    Thanks for stopping by - I've been having trouble commenting on Beta, so I hope this goes.
  • Mississippi Girl · 3 years ago
    Everything is just BEAUTIFUL! Love the mugs, and the tree through the window! Slide show was awesome! Merry Christmas!

    Very nice! I love your nativity set- I'm partial to the ones that don't look like the carbon copy ones you see everywhere else all the time. Very unique!

    I swear I posted a comment earlier! Did I or have I totally lost my mind?! Anyway-love the house especially the wreath. I finally posted some of my pictures-you will see in my post that I decided to redo my tree. That's what happens when an ex showroom floor designer stays at home and gets bored! :)
  • Katherine @ Raising Five · 3 years ago
    Should have known you'd have a lovely wreath! So unique! Merry Christmas!

    What a cool idea... a slide show! I can tell you had some fun putting this together. I love your white (poinsetta?) wreath on the door the most. And your naughty or nice cups... cute! Glad you remembered to bake a cake for Jesus! Thanks for the tour.

    e-Mom :~)
  • Sprittibee · 3 years ago
    I really enjoyed your display. I happened to be listening to the new Charlotte's Web soundtrack and I was listening to "There is a Fountain" by Selah while I watched it. It was singing about God's Redeeming love and I was sitting here crying looking at your tree-top angel and the lights that remind us of His star. Very moving. Little did you know that your bloggie Christmas tour would be such a joy, eh?!
  • dcrmom · 3 years ago
    Fun! Love the slide show. Merry Christmas!
  • ShaggaBear · 3 years ago
    I like the wreath on the front door. It really stands out well. And the little church is so cute.

    Merry Christmas.
  • Cheryl · 3 years ago
    What a great slide show. I really love the picture of your tree from the outside....and with that snow falling, it was beautiful!

    Thanks for sharing your home.

    Merry Christmas!

    Thinking a lot about this - especially about blogging...
  • Robin · 3 years ago
    First of all, I love the slide show! I may have to just copy that when and if I ever get my tour up. Also, and this is sooo random, but we love your sticky chicken recipe! thanks for sharing that and your home.
  • Blessed Beyond Measure · 3 years ago
    I was fascinated by the slide show - hope your holidays away are wonderful. I'm with eph2810 - the year we left, I did much less decorating than that. So you outdid yourself, I'd say.
  • orgjunkie · 3 years ago
    Wonderful decorations and your nativty scene was amazing....just love it! Thanks for letting me take a peek inside your home, I enjoyed the tour! Laura (orgjunkie)
