Well, first I'm jealous of your fireplace even though I'm about to turn my AC on.
Your tree is so pretty. I love the candy ornaments at Target. Is that where you got your garland? Our Target didn't have that one if so. I'm doing our tree in tropical colors this year and my old garland is wooden cranberries so isn't going to work. We bought our tree yesterday and are decorating tonight. I'm so excited! I love Christmas!
