I love Christmas too but couldn't decorate my home a fraction like you as I don't have enough storage space for when it's not Christmas....lol. However I'm sure I could manage at least 1 extra tree (even just smallish one) for our upstairs lounge area. Enjoy your Christmas and I can't wait for installment no. 2.<br /><br />NikkiNikki Stalkerhttp://www.nicolestalker.com.au/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3863873665193842008.post-69669957002269375342013-12-14T04:28:17.427-05:002013-12-14T04:28:17.427-05:00Oh my gosh Suzanne, I am totally in awe of all th...Oh my gosh Suzanne, I am totally in awe of all that you have done.
