:: Looks Like Christmas! ::
Around our house anyway! I can’t help the fact that it’s been almost 70 degrees out, and certainly doesn’t feel like Christmas! I just thought I’d share a few pics of Chez Sims all decked out for the holidays. Some of the photos look a little wonky….
This is the outside of the house. I decided to mix blue in with my white lights. I’ve always used only white lights outside, so this was something new and different. You can’t see it in the dark, but I have this beautiful blue shimmery ribbon in my garland around the door and in the wreaths. It really shows up well in daylight. 
We have two trees up in the house. This is the one in Jordan’s playroom. It has colored lights and some pretty Victorian style ornaments, which match the pink room perfectly! 
This is the tree in the great room. I cut off the Santa on top when I took the photo, but you get the idea - LOL!
This is my massive collection of Santas! 
And here we have the little village set up in the kitchen. Jordan’s always going through and moving the people around! 
And last, but not least, this is a car that Jordan saw at Wal-Mart, and just had to get for her daddy! It has little hydraulics under and and it plays Low Rider while Santa and the reindeers bobble their heads around. It really is pretty cute - well not so much after hearing it 30 times in row - LOL! 
And since I seem to really be in a Christmas mood, how about a Christmas freebie? This is a cluster of elements from my Old Fashion Christmas set. This would be great to go in the corner of a Christmas page, or it can even be used on a Christmas card. 
HERE is the download link. PLEASE DO NOT SHARE THIS LINK! Have a great day, and leave me some love!

Thanks for the Christmas goodies! Your trees are beautiful. I always dream of having a coordinated Xmas tree, but then I see our homely tree full of kids ornaments (they each receive a new one every year) and don’t have the heart to leave them off. Perhaps when they’ve all left home and taken their ornaments with them.

beautiful Traci, thank you, love your photos of your outside Christmas lights and your trees, beautiful. I SO can’t wait to put ours up…I always put it up on Dec 1st, although my youngest was born on Dec 10th 3 years ago…so I’m wondering if as she gets older I may not be able to put the Christmas tree up until after her birthday
oh well…lol thanks for sharing your photos and the freebie, have a great night
