milking the holidays

Curtis and I will be spending Thanksgiving in Austin (TX) with my family and Christmas in Wyoming (MI) with his family. I could use our travel as an excuse to be decorating the house for Christmas early, but the truth is... we would do it anyway.
There's just something so cozy about a Christmas tree :) ...and we have four.
(I apologize for the bad quality of the pictures - I took them with my iphone which is a 3G and doesn't have flash capabilities)

It's Christmas in our living room:
 A little Christmas in "the parlor":
 A Sherlockian Christmas in Curtis' study:
 And a very little Christmas in our bedroom:
This tree is not of the Christmas variety, but it is one that I took pride in creating on our bedroom wall:
So! While we plan on thoroughly enjoying the Thanksgiving holiday this weekend (and an anniversary of sorts), we can also rest in knowing that our home will be ready to welcome us into the Christmas season when we return from our trip to Austin this weekend.
