Welcome to my Christmas Blog, A Debbie-Dabble Christmas!!
I am so happy you decided to stop by my Christmas Blog!!
I want to mention that since Blogger changed to a new format for
posting, if you can click on each picture if you care to enlarge
it......
Every room in our townhouse has a different Christmas Theme and Color Scheme!!
I do try to add a few new things and change up things a bit but for the most part, these decorations are part of my Christmas Traditions and bring back a lot of treasured memories.....
Today, I will finally be sharing how I decorated the front of our house for Christmas this year....
Thanks again, Bev!!
I prove that you do not have to live in a large home to have several Trees, over 20, in all shapes and sizes!!
The majority of my Christmas decorations are placed in the same room every year and I know that this is not what most Decorator's care for but to me, it like seeing old friends again when I decorate each year for Christmas as many of my decorations were gifts from family and friends...........

Today, I will finally be sharing how I decorated the front of our house for Christmas this year....
I
say finally because I decorated it the first weekend of November since
we had unseasonably warm temps. and I took advantage of that....
I have been waiting to see if we would have a little snow before I posted and that we did have...just a little bit of snow.....
But first, I want to Thank
to Bev, over at Eclectic Red Barn, for choosing my post, Sweet Treat Tree and Hutch in the Kitchen, as one of her features from last week's
Over the Moon Linky Party!!!
Thanks again, Bev!!
Please stop by and link up to this great party!!!
On a personal note.......
Since
my son Joey lost his job a few weeks ago and because of a very generous
severance package, he is taking the rest of the year off to relax
before actively job hunting...
And since I am retired now and have a lot of time, I decided that I was going to give his apartment a good deep cleaning.....
He
has lived in this apartment for over 10 years and has done a fairly
decent job keeping it clean but it is in need of a deep cleaning.....
He lives on the second floor so I worked on cleaning his stairway......
I
ran the sweeper, cleaned the base boards, the tile by the front door
and even swept out his entrance and the entrance to the 3 other
apartments whose doors are right next to his in a square formation....
I then shampooed the carpeting on the steps and it came out looking pretty good if I do say so myself....
The next day, I cleaned his bathroom, scrubbing down the tile and the tub really good......
So much so that he said he was afraid to use it.....
And I cleaned his stove because I was afraid that it would burst into flames when he turned on a burner......
Just kidding!!
On Friday, Joey treated us to dinner with Take Out from Mission BBQ!!
Their macaroni and chesse is to die for!!
Joey got a chicken sandwich.......
Joe got a pulled pork sandwich......
And I got a turkey sandwich.....
We thoroughly enjoyed everything.....
Mission BBQ is one of our favorites and is located right down the road from us..
I
really took my time decorating the front of the house this year as it
was warm, in the high 60's to low 70's when I did it......
Hugs,
Debbie
