Deck The Halls Post #4: Super Mom

Today's post completely explains why Super Mom received her blog name.  For crying out loud, she is taking care of three boys under the age of 3 who have been sick for weeks, she's pregnant with baby #4, she makes freaking homemade Christmas gifts for people like homemade vanilla extract and sugared almonds, and still has time to beautifully decorate her house and look this adorable while going to Mass on Saturday night.  Seriously, she's super human.  Enjoy.  Be jealous. 




I bought this before I was married and for some reason it's one of my favorite pieces.

This is part of my Christmas "china" - rather than picking out a regular china when I registered for my wedding, I picked out Christmas themed china. I love bringing it out every year to use every day as we prepare for Christmas!

 I love nativities.  This Nambe one was a gift from my grandmother.  I love it's simplicity!

Last year the boys received this book and figurine as a reminder of the real reason for Christmas.

I also love Christmas trees (see a theme here?).  I think I'll start collecting them :)



 I finally found an Advent calendar that I adore.  I've been putting little toys in it for the boys but hope to put ideas for acts of kindness that we can participate in during Advent as the boys get older.

A sweet lady in town made these stockings for each of the boys without me even asking her to - we'll forever treasure them!

Each one has their name and the year that they were born.

Just a little "Merry Christmas" garland.

Our Advent wreath.

Carter decorating a wonderful smelling real tree.

Our tree topper (with Jesus in the background).

I used to hate these glass ornaments, but now they're my favorite - funny how things change.
