Christmas Parade and More

Alan and I went to the Christmas parade this past weekend. It was my first Christmas parade in a long time. We had a blast. It was freezing out, but we bundled up and headed out. Ran into some of Alan's friends from high school and caught up with them. It was a long parade but they had so many great floats and marching bands you couldn't resist getting into the Christmas spirit. Even Alan had fun and he doesn't get into all that stuff like I do. Once we got home I decided to take some pictures of us and the animals in front of our tree. Pepe couldn't get into the fun with us because he was outside and filthy so he will have to take pictures some other time. Here are just some of the pics from the parade...I took too many to put on here. Merry Christmas Everyone!!

'Tis the Season

Alan and I put up all of our Christmas decorations last weekend. And I surprised Alan this week by putting up and decorating the tree while he was at work one day. I love this holiday and couldn't wait to finish decorating. It's our first Christmas in Tupelo together. Last year I was in Tupelo by myself while Alan was still working in Jackson so I didn't put up any decorations or anything. We did get to spend it together visiting most of our families but it just wasn't the same. I love being in Tupelo and seeing all of the city's decorations. It feels more like home then Jackson ever did...it has a more down home feeling. Here are some pictures I took of our decorations and tree. Have a safe and happy holiday season!!

These are the stockings of our dog and cat. We have to get one more for our new dog, must go shopping.


Our Christmas Tree


Mine and Alan's stockings. We don't have a mantle so we have to use our speakers.


My collections of santas, nutcrackers, and other Christmas figurines.


With the lights on it looks much better


The outside. The big ball of light in the middle is a star that is so bright that it doesn't show up well in the pictures.
