Christmas decorations

Postby ERV » Thu Dec 30, 2010 5:31 pm

Now that the hustle and bustle is almost over, thought everyone that decorated their houses could show us a picture or two. Here is ours.
Hope you all had a nice Christmas! And a better new year for all of us!!

I was wondering why the water balloon was getting bigger... and then it hit me.

I used to do up my house really nice every year, , but now, I don't own one single Christmas decoration. I gladly let the ex-wife have them. :lol:

When I was married, it took days to put up all the decorations, and days to take them down, pack them up, and stuff them back in the attic.

As HOA president for three years, I also had the pleasure of knocking on doors around March to request that they take down their Christmas lights -- a result of the other pleasure of taking complaint calls from other homeowners.

I do like what you did with your house, Erv and Jan. Very warm. Very tastefully done. :thumbsup:

The Santa plate above our mantle was painted by my grandmother. I wish I had more. :(

After Mom got into it she painted us all one plate every year that was different. They moved to fl. And were down there for 22 years. Didn't get to see them to much. But she did become a really good painter. Her plates would sell in the hundreds. They moved back to Ohio about 8 years ago. Both are gone now, but she left us with about 600 plates she had done for herself. I could fill all the walls in our house and wouldn't have to paint any more. :lol:
