is this enough?

For the past few years I have put my Christmas tree up on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving.  I wasn't too concerned with decorations, just the lights were enough to enjoy during dinner.  On the following Friday, we would decorate.  Not this year.  We did not have Thanksgiving here and because of that I felt there was no reason to hurry to Christmas up the house.  Finally... the Sunday after Thanksgiving I put the little tree up that you saw in the previous post.  Because of maniac Spike, to this day, no decorating has been accomplished - and to be honest, it will probably remain bare.

The rest of the house, up until last night, was also bare.  Normally, by now, we would have about 5 nativities on display, lights strung around the entertainment center illuminating the animal stockings, and so many knick knacks cluttering the house it would be almost annoying... almost.   This year, there is really no need to go nuts in here because, just like Thanksgiving, we will celebrate next door.  After discussing with the Demon what he thought we should display.. we decided on 1 full nativity, 1 small set, and stockings!

baby Jesus...

after!

The Demon thought it hilarious to have the skull photo bomb the picture.  I agree!  I do not have pictures of the stockings yet.  The top of the dog cage is a mess so that picture will be posted soon enough.  

Finally.. the last nativity. 


This nativity is sitting underneath the tree.  Is this a recipe for disaster?  Maybe.  But, it looks nice there!
