DIY Christmas Decorating

Christmas is almost here and I am still wondering where the time went. The older I get the faster the years go by. That old feeling of holidays past haunt my mind as I remember the times with my girls and how I wish I could go back and enjoy that time again. But as we all know there is no going back so why not make this year more special and create a treasured memory that you always wanted to have?

 Now I am remembering the movie ‘A Christmas vacation’ and laugh because there are no perfect holidays. 

Just like Clark Griswold no matter how hard you try something will go wrong. Just get up and dust yourself off and remember that your kids will talk about you to their kids .All the crazy things you did and the things that wentwrong.no matter what you think, you did create a treasured memory. Your children will always remember and be filled with the warm spirit of Christmas love that you helped create with them.

Now on to the Diy projects I have come across in my search for all things Christmas
