the snow is snowing

and the sun is shining so I took the opportunity to take some xmas decorations photos. decorating this year was tricky because it's our first year here so lots of decisions needed to made and it wasn't decorating on autopilot like christmas should be. like everything else in the house so far, the decorations kind of just stuck where they landed. next year I should have a better idea of where things would best go. maybe spread out a little better since the lion's share is all in the living/dining room.

our new jennifer murphy mouse. she's my favorite this year.
