Valentine's Day Decor: Around the house

I don't decorate too much around the house for Valentine's day but I thought I would show you what I did this year!

In the kitchen I put out the pink place mats and hang heart garlands

 I decorated Addy's little eating area...so cute!

 I think the mantle looked pretty similar last year...

 Look at my babe last Valentine's Day! SO little! That hat still fits by the way!!

We moved the old pie safe into the living room so we could put Addy's table in the kitchen!!

And that's it! I don't get super crazy like at Christmas! But it is just enough!! Adalyn loves all the glitter and hearts!!

Christmas Decor 2013

I thought I would post a few photos of my Christmas decor this year! I have changed up the tree colours and added red. Last year my tree colours were brown, green, white and gold. Here are a couple photos:

As much as I loved it I was ready for a change and decided on classic red. I bought a bunch of red ornaments at the end of the season for super cheap so I only had to buy a few new ones this year!

Here is the tree:

I love the mantel as well:

And here is some other decor from around the house:

 

I love the poinsettias! They were 3 for $9.99 at Sobeys! They are the perfect size!

 

This is the card holder I got at the end of the year for super cheap!

 This is our favourite Christmas card photo that Jaclyn took for us!

 My favourite ornament!

 Love my new photos I framed that Jaclyn took for us!

I lovelovelove Christmas and all the decorations. I wish I could keep it up all year long! There is something special about the twinkling lights at night. Ugh, I love it. Adalyn loves it just as much!

She says "oooh" points to the tree and loves the Santa ornament I put on! I had to! It is a joke with Mike's family but Addy loves it. She says "hohoho" It is so cute!

Anyway, hope you liked my decor this year! I will post Adalyn's room decor sometime this week!

Halloween Mantle

I still haven't posted about our Halloween decor. I figured I better do it since Halloween is almost over. I still can't believe it. We don't really have that many decorations, but I always like to decorate the mantle in the living room.

Here are a few decorations around the house:

 We have had fun with the holidays buying chair covers for the highchair! Remember our Easter bunny chair cover?! They are all from the dollarstore. This one is actually a costume. I thought it would be cute. I did buy an actual chair cover but she got it a little messy...I threw it in the wash and all the pieces came off. hahah. 

And here is the mantle:

I'm loving the black pumpkins I bought this year!! Fun! I think it looks similar to last years though!

Soon I will be taking these down and putting birthday decorations up! I can't believe my booboo with be one year old! *sigh* I am excited for her party though!
