Everyone has their own opinions on when it's acceptable to put up Christmas decorations, with the general consensus being that anytime after Thanksgiving will save you from ridicule. But, in our house, we have been putting up decorations earlier and earlier, reasoning that we can enjoy them longer, brighten up gloomy winter days, and still celebrate Thanksgiving surrounded by green trees and twinkle lights.
So while our house has been cheery for about a month already, it's now safe to allow the Christmas spirit to spill over onto the blog. :)
I'm an avid
Instagrammer, posting pics of just about anything, but more recently I've felt inspired by Lauren Conrad's photos. Everything she posts is straight up pretty, with a warm glow and subsequent feelings of happiness. So she's inspired me to capture photos that will leave my followers (hopefully) feeling the same. And, what better time of year to spread the warmth and cheer than Christmas?!
So here are a few fun pics of the Christmas cheer in our house. :) Merry Christmas!

What are your favorite parts of the Christmas season? Do you get a new ornament each year? When did you put up your decor?
