JDaniel and I went shopping for some Christmas decorations for the outside of our house yesterday. I was really feeling the need to keep up with the other people with in the neighborhood. Really not to keep up with them just to do something more than we did last year. We usually hang a wreath on the door, put lights on one tree, and place ribbons on our railing. It looks nice. With the expectation of the house next store that has a lot of lights the other five around us have wreaths with red bows on all the lower windows, garlands under windows, and some lights. It is all tastefully done. With the bad weather , lateness my husband gets home, and my inability to climb a ladder to decorate with a toddler our house doesn’t even have up what we had last year. The plan is to work on it this weekend so; JDaniel and I got four wreaths with ribbons yesterday at A.C. Moore. They were a great deal. All four wreaths were $21. Now I just have to hope the weather stays nice!
Do you have the only undecorated house on your block? Do you deal with house envy?

We have a similar level of decorating, the tree, banister and around the inside of our house. Yesterday my five year old son asked if we could decorate the outside. I don’t feel any pressure, but was surprised how much he wanted to keep up with the other houses.

A similar level of decorating but most of the houses don’t have any kind of decorations.
Thanks for stopping by my blog today.

Nope…most houses in our lane our not decorated. So I guess I’m doing okay so far 🙂 Have a great Friday 🙂

My house is undecorated, and I think my street is overdecorated to be honest. We are leaving in a few days and we’ll be gone for Christmas and New Years and I just don’t want to bother decorating a house that I won’t be able to enjoy!
Thanks for stopping by my blog today!
