Christmas Decor

Hello everybody, hope all is well with you. My day started off a tad bit scary. Waking up to find out that a tornado had touched down in my city this morning, well, that's not how I like to start off my day. Then, finding out that it was only a few blocks from my daughters house, made it even worse. Thank goodness, nobody was harmed , only damage to buildings and cars. The sun is shining now, so I hope it's all gone. Today, I am sharing some pics from my dining room with you. Looking forward to our Christmas eve dinner that we will have here on Monday. Think I might just get all my dinnerware out today, so I have it all ready early (that will be a first for me). I'm going to let the pics do all the talking today. Thanks for coming by, and be sure to check out all the parties that I am attending. Linky parties, are wonderful places to get inspired, so if you have never checked them out, give them a try today.
                                              Blessings,
                                                 Linda

    Linda--your decor looks fabulous! It looks simple enough that I could copy it. :) How I wish I could decorate. so clueless!

    Happy to hear that there were no injuries. I can't imagine what went through your mind those few minutes when you heard it was near your daughter's home!

    Merry Christmas to you and your family!

    Linda,
    So sweet! The little winking santa cup melted my heart, my mother had a set of those and I grew up drinking hot chocolate out of them at Christmas time. Memories...

    First of all, so thankful that no one was hurt in the tornado.

    I love your crisp red and white in your home. It all looks so pretty. And, that dough bowl on your table is great.

    Merry Christmas, Linda.

    I thought of y'all immediately when I heard about the tornado in Mobile - so glad all is okay - I think they are predicting more bad stuff for Christmas day - sure hope they're wrong.
    I love how the sprig of evergreen (cedar?) looks in the white ironstone pitcher - simple and beautiful.
    Merry Christmas to all of you from all of us!
