Show us your Christmas/Holiday decorations!

[texmaster]

After Halloween someone asked what we do for Christmas and this is it!

We used (that means me) used to put up the old traditional lights around the windows but after the success with rope lights at halloween and the fact the little squirrel bastards kept eating through the regular lights I switched the rope ones for the windows.

Show us yours!

And of course...The trains!!!!

Love love love the trains! One of our boys has an LGB set that he's had since he was a child and now that he has kids of his own he's regaining his interest. We were just at a Train Fest with them a few weeks ago - so fun!

And everything is computerized now! I can run all the trains from an app on my phone from the smoke to the whistle to the bell but they have certainly gone up in price as well. The big boy engine the one on the outer track retails for 1800!

One of the coolest features now that I like is the synchronized chuffing of smoke with the sounds!

Very cool Tex! I just found a free fake lighted Christmas tree on my bike ride home today. I think it moves around in a circle as it has some kind of swivel base. Will see when I plug it in. The people put a sign on it saying it works. You know how that goes tho.

I told him to, "not move" so the hat wouldn't fall off, so he sat frozen with his head up like that the whole time!

haha I love your dog @Somethin' Fishy

Ok wife is mad at me because she said my pictures stink so here's more

I stay the heck away from the tree because she puts on these glass oranments that are literally irreplaceable which means no way in hell am I getting near it.

Here is a little something we put out during the winter/holidays.

I love everyone's decor!

Love the trains and that antique horse @texmaster ! And the bear is adorable @RobAmy. Our cabin bear isn't as fluffy!

I don't have pics of the outside yet, but here is my very simple indoor decor

My tree has a rotating base that's why it doesn't show up good in pics

 

[j.w]

Love all the decorating! I don't go all out anymore but love seeing all you guy's do it

Not our house.

Florida Santa sleigh.

Mine are pretty lame and low key but they add a little bit of the Christmas Spirit to my soul.

Here is that free tree I found while out riding my bike the other day and it does turn around nicely and all the lights worked:

This little ceramic house lights up inside and I have a red bulb in there. The other night we were watching a Hill House haunted show and my husband looked over and said that house looks just like the Hill House burning up inside w/ghosts!

You know I love snow so I have to love Snowmen:

Santa's to amuse the little grand-daughter:

I found this mop type santa several years ago in a free box at a garage sale:

More santa's:

Fake Poinsettia I haul out every year,lol:

And of course the wreath on the front door welcoming those who visit. Sun actually came out early today to shine on it :

So this is our Merry Little Christmas to all!

 

[Gemma]

I don't think your decor is lame @j.w and I love all your snowman!
