These little things are our touches of Christmas (besides the tree of course). Nice and simple. We could use a little more, but I like the idea of accumulating year by year. I think I'll spray paint our nativity figurines glossy white, either before I put them away or next year. I had grander plans for this year, but alas, I have two little children and I can't do it all. And that's okay. In the meantime, this is our little Christmas!

I love this poinsetta! And I love having something alive and fresh in our home. I'll have to find a full-time plant to replace it in the new year.
