Here is my Christmas decorations post, as requested by Lauricia!!!
A couple of the nutcrackers from my collection of around 46 nutcrackers :)
We have a huge Christmas village that takes 9 hours for us to set up :) But it's tons of fun :)

Christmas totally snuck up on me this year - can you believe it's under a week away?!?
It hasn't really felt like Christmas to me this year. Maybe it's cuz we've had an unusually warm winter (I was really hot outside yesterday, and I was wearing shorts and a T-shirt). I've learned that Christmas loses its magic as you get older, because every year I've gotten less and less excited about it. It makes me sad, but I guess it just comes with growing up!
I hope y'all have an amazing Christmas!
I have a friend who has a nutcracker collection too! they are too cute!

Lovely Christmas stuff. And wow! 46 nutcrackers?!?! Wow Mal. Wow. That's intense. haha.
ReplyDeleteI can so see the resemblance in all of you! Its adorable :)
When you were talking about Christmas and it losing its Magical-ness, I felt like you were reading straight from my journal. I said those very words this Christmas. I really get where you're coming from. Really. I've been feeling that so much this year.
Great post! And thanks for sharing it!
Love and miss you, girl!
Oooh I love your village. We have one too but it's not that big. We always have a hard time trying to find a surface in the house that will fit it all though, haha. Love it!
ReplyDeleteThe Christmas village sounds (and looks) awesome! I collect Santas, so last year I made a little Santa Village in my room. It wasn't nearly as elabroate as this though :)
