| Wanna see some Christmas decorations? Back home, where my parents live, the county has a "Christmas Home Tour" every 2 years. The community nominates people's homes and then 2 or 3 are selected to decorate their homes for Christmas and then have the community tour them. This year, my parent's house was selected! Mom began decorating back in October and just finished Friday night- the tour was yesterday. She ended up with 63 trees in the house- at least half were 4ft or taller! I took lots of pictures and decided to share them with YT! Most of the pictures have captions underneath so hopefully it explains what you're looking at! Enjoy!!

Donating YT 1000 Club Member | Wow! Your mom did a wonderful job decorating and having everything ready for the tour, is anyone helping her to put all those decorations away? Best of all, every corner,every decoration, every piece of furniture has a meaning, you and your family are very lucky to have all those priceless memories. Thank you for sharing them with us.

| What gorgeous decorations. It really feels like Christmas now. Do they give out prizes for the best decorated? Tell her she deserves a break now. http://i526.photobucket.com/albums/c...as-snow-xm.gif

| Looks like your family never parted with a thing all their lives. You mom did an amazing job and I'll bet she could use a week in bed. Thank you for sharing the house with us. I'm totally amazed!

| Thank you! LOL As long as you give her a few days to rest, she'd probably be willing to decorate some more. I'm most like her in this regard, we both live to be creative!

| Nope, we come from a long line of pack rats! I love it though, I think it's great to be surrounded in so much of my heritage.

| Holy Cow!....Your mom must have had a ball!......She did a great job!... It looks like she lives in one of those older homes that I just love!!.....I used to live in one like that and it was built in the early 1900's and it had those wide baseboards and that beautiful oak wood in the doorway with the pillars and don't forget all those real oak floors!..... They sure don't make homes like that anymore and I sure miss mine.
