The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, in hopes that our family {and santa} soon would be there. 
We are enjoying these last few days before Christmas. They are filled with cookie making, family, Christmas music, touring of lights, luncheons, holiday date nights and lots of Christmas stories beneath the tree. And of course the occasional temper tantrum from our two year old {just keeping it real, people!}. Here is a final tour of what Christmas looks like in our home. Wishing you a very Merry Christmas! 
Lit garlands are resting above all of the cabinets. 
Even the kitchen could not escape my love for lime green this holiday season. 
We have a large board that hosts our Christmas cards. . this year, the ones that didn’t fit are hanging from clothes pins on our garland. I think I will continue this tradition. I am loving it. 
The lime green accents were picked up at HomeGoods this year. 
Starting to set the table for Christmas Eve. I will be using the gift tags from jones design company for name cards. The gold, glitter ornaments are from Big Lots. 
Simple candy canes set the scene for where the drinks will be.

Okay, I'm ready to come over and sip some hot cocoa in front of your fireplace! Your home is so lovely! Santa may want to say awhile! Are your kiddos so excited for Christmas??
Wow, my house is an embarrassment compared to yours. I am seriously in love with your subway tile in your kitchen.
Your home is stunning! I love all the sparkles. After I saw that printable on the credenza in your breakfast/dining area (I think?) I knew I needed it! So I printed it up and put it in a pretty frame. It's in our living room now, thanks to you! You're so creative in how to display your cards…I love them on the garland. I bet the kids are getting super excited for Christmas! Yay (:
Yay! Courtney came to my party 🙂 Seeing your decorations makes me want to start all over. I'm loving that you combined the fruit ornaments with the balls in your glass container. Hope I can remember to do that next year. And yes, do continue with the cards on the stairs – too cute.
Thanks for joining the party! Merry Christmas!

Courtney, your home looks beautiful and so inviting! We are almost done…hosted our Annual Bunco Holiday party tonight and everyone had a good time. We all went as a group over to our dear friend's home prior to the festivities to pay our respects to her husband and her family. While it was a bit somber…we all really appreciated the reality check.
It all looks beautiful and I love your lime green touches throughout. Your home looks so cozy and festive, Courtney. Very clever and pretty to hang the cards from the garland! I hope you and your family have a very Merry Christmas!
Your table settings are beautiful! Love the glitter, the gold, those tags. Perfect.
