Decorating the House For the First Time

This is my first year decorating the house for Christmas and it is so much fun!  Here is the house all lit up:

Here is the front door:

And here is Banjo watching us from inside as she does every time one of us takes the dogs out:

The coat rack has been Christmas-ized:

We put up some lights between the living and dining rooms: 

Here is the dining room table:

The kitchen is Christmas-y:

And so is my nightstand (the lamp is open on the bottom):

It is probably cost-prohibitive to get a roof rack on my car at this point.  So this is how we bring home Christmas trees:

And here it is up and decorated: 

I'll be posting about how I made my tree skirt soon!
