Around the House Saturdays: Christmas Trimmings 2010

Wow! It's been a while since I've written one of these posts. Please forgive me as I've been pretty busy tending to our new Little Man.

Well, it is December, which means lots of Christmas decor to add that bit of festive cheer to your home. The Hubby and I were so excited to decorate our home for Christmas this year, especially since it's our first Christmas in our new home and our first Christmas with Little Man.

As always, we got our yearly Christmas ornaments...and even Little Man got his very own.

A grand view of the entire tree. I think it gets prettier and prettier every year (but I'm a little biased).

Making their 2010 Christmas Season debut, the Santa Band Trio.

Even everyday kitchen utensils get to be festive.

The three wise men are beginning their star following journey.

How about a little bit of sweet peppermint to stir in your hot chocolate?

And every cake stand must come equipped with colorful Christmas ornaments.

And of course, my collection of vintage decor is scattered throughout, bringing smiles all around.

What are some of your favorite Christmas decorations?
