Edited Note: Um… I just realized I forgot to actually LINK this to BooMama’s site yesterday! So I’ll wait to add another blog for another day – just in case I get some people popping over!! Honestly. I wonder about myself at times!
It’s my first time to be on the BooMama’s Tour of Homes. And I’m kinda excited. I took all my pictures last night. But waited until this morning to post. Why? Because well, I just did. But it looks like I”ll be something posting #300-something and I like high numbers!!! So here goes: Welcome to our 5-Acre Woods -inside the home, of course, because nothing screams lack of Christmas cheer like a bunch of leaves that haven’t been blown yet! I’ll spare you the details. It’s quite embarrassing. Enjoy my little rendition of the tour. I’m posting a favorite recipe of December Cider later – so maybe you’ll come back for a visit!
‘Twas the nights before Christmas and I worked through rains and fogs
to make our home look like the Season and didn’t even disturb the dogs.
The greenery how cheery, the deer at peace….
But the manger scene is missing the Holy Family – good grief!
But what to my wondering eyes should appear?
A Christmas rabbit rug – Oh, please watch your step, dear!
Your eyes how they’ll twinkle, your lips how it will smile
when you notice our collection of Byers’ Choice Carolers – they’ll welcome you for awhile.
Fall into our pillows with a cup of hot tea,
You might even watch a Christmas movie with glee.
Over our bed we wouldn’t know what to do…
without our sign to protect us, “Angels Watching Over You.”
But the best part of this Christmas tour of my home
is the tree full of ornaments, ribbons and lights that are shown.
Merry Christmas, from our home to yours.
CUTE! I love the house, the dogs on the couch… (it reminds me of home!) and all the fun decorations. Even the movie that is on the tv is great… I love the Santa Claus movies!
I love your collection of carolers!! I have been collecting them for about five years now – but that means that I only have five carolers and one cat. It’s part of the fun of the Christmas season to pick out a new one for the year!
Love it! And the story too
I love my creative friend!
I’m so glad you included the angel puppies! What was I thinking when I forgot to put mine on my tour? Oh, right. FOUR won’t be still long enough for a picture!
You know I love your house, but I love those reindeer! (And the red dining room in my fave!)
Oh, I enjoyed the tour of your home, especially the creative poetry!!! Your SO talented, and I love your home! Thanks for sharing.
Merry Christmas!
I love your tree. I don’t do Christmas trees very well, but I’m not sure why…maybe I don’t put enough on them.
How creative and what a lovely house you have. My favorite though is the two puppies. Merry Christmas!
I love your carolers! Thanks for opening your home for this tour!
Everything is so beautiful!!! So are your two dogs. We raised labs for many years and they are the best dogs! Thanks for sharing
Blessings

Those deer are amazing!! Oh my goodness so are your carolers!! Thanks for sharing. Merry Christmas!
Thanks for the tour, everything looks so festive…, and I love all the leaves on the ground!…and your two dogs are gorgeous. Merry Christmas!
love all of your decorations!! but especially the sweet pups!
What lovely decorating! At first I thought the dogs were supposed to be reindeer. They are so cute.
Love the reindeer and that enormous collection of carolers. I’ve never seen those before or at least not that many.
I also enjoyed reading your clever way of showcasing your pictures with a familiar poem.
Cute poem narrarating your tour! We had the same nativity scene growing up and my grandmother had a ton of the Carolers. I got my first 4 last Christmas! Thanks for inviting us in! Also, thanks for popping by my home tour today!
Merry Christmas!
Everything is just adorable! Thanks for coming by my Christmas party tour too. Loved it all & I hope you’ll come back to see me again. Have a very Merry Christmas!
THis is a bit late, but I loved your pictures!! I have the same rabbit picture in my breakfast room!! Isnt’ that funny?
