the holly and the ivy and the party invite on the fridge door...

its beginning to look a lot like christmas...

party invites on the fridge door...

reindeer prancing through the kitchen...

our little trad corner has gone all festive too...

baubles everywhere...

ho ho ho to you farmers market trio...

believe...whatever you believe in be glad that you believe...

this is mc wifes first wee christmas ornament from mc husband...

this is possibly the biggest ornament ever...

ah would you look at the poodle obsessed mc wife and mc husband putting poodle christmas ornaments on their tree...their not wise...

picture perfect...thats us...thanks lucy...

i think i might miss those wonderful christmassy snowy dublin inspired guinness ads this year...as well as fairy tale of new york being played to death...

this is a vignette...don't mind the lampshade...we don't really like it but we love the lamp base and we just haven't found the perfect lampshade for the room or had time to make one...

i'm done...mc wife and i had a great time on saturday decorating our wee gaff...we threw on grooveshark, listened to some christmas music, and cracked open a nice bottle of red wine while we decked out our living room for christmas...annie lennox has a christmas album out and it's brilliant...the holly and the ivy is awesome...she rocks in a non-elvis way and certainly not as much as mc wife...

(annie lennox - not the holly and the ivy...that would just be absurd....)

just thought i'd share this with y'all today...
