It's Christmas Time {Acorn Cottage: Nightfall}

 I love the look of white lights at night, warm white lights, not the bluish hues of the hideous LEDs. I recently snapped photos of the yard before leaving for school. The lights of the season make me so happy.

I hope you enjoy the photos of the Acorn Cottage in its holiday splendor.

Nightfall y'all!

It's Christmas Time {Chateau Lapeyre}

As per holiday tradition, J and I travel "back home" to the bayou for Thanksgiving and decorate several family members' homes. My sister and brother-in-law have a lovely home in Ardoyne Plantation Estates, and it is always a favorite to decorate. Most of the decorations were purchased for their first Christmas in their new home three years ago, but we have since added some here and there. The home is a beautiful French, Acadian style with great details. Even the pool house/outdoor kitchen area did not escape some holiday spirit.

Enjoy the photos of Chateau Lapeyre graced in her Christmas splendor:

 Now that Thanksgiving is behind us, it is time to share Christmas from the Acorn Cottage. I am not one of those bloggers who decorate early just to fill my feed with Christmas photos for blog hops, etc. I actually do not like blog hops. My photos are in real time.

Today, I'd like to share the Christmas facade of the Acorn Cottage. I used d. stevens plaid ribbons with fresh greens as delivered by Mitch's Flowers. Red poinsettias from Perino's Garden Center also add to the spirited decor.

This year, I moved the toy soldiers in front of the windows under the copper awning. I also added plaid ribbons as scarves.

It is supposed to get really cold tomorrow. I am so very ready for cooler, more seasonal weather.

I'll share more of the porch when the sun comes out again.

Christmas time, y'all!
