@ekendall09 I love your floors. Love them. When we had our house remodeled a few years ago we were supposed to get wide-planked, dark wood floors. I couldn’t wait. When I showed up after the flooring guy was done, lo and behold we had the same red oak that everyone on the planet has. When I freaked out on the contractor, he just said “yeah we were starting to go way over budget so I had to make a decision.” I was sooooo angry. I would have sacrificed a lot of other things to get floors like yours!

ekendall09 · December 2017

@kmalls I would have been devastated too. We have an 1800 farmhouse so all our floors are original and wood (as far as we can tell. Our other connecting living room has the beautiful original pine color (as does our bedroom and the future nursery) but they painted a good number of rooms black. Instead of refinishing we did keep the ones they had black and just repainted them. We are paying someone to refinish the nursery ones because i'm unwilling to give up the originals! I can totally understand why you'd be devastated.

@ekendall09 GORGEOUS!

kmalls · December 2017

@ekendall09 us, too! Our house was built by DH’s great-grandparents in 1880. Unfortunately by the time he inherited the house it was basically falling down, which meant we had to renovate the entire thing. The only original pine floors we could save are in the kids’ rooms and they look amazing refinished, but we had to put in new floors for the rest of the house. I wanted so badly to preserve the old farmhouse look, but no — it now looks like every other house around. Replacing those floors with what I want is on the list of things to do, but honestly I can’t imagine paying to replace practically brand-new floors any time soon. Ugh.

PS - your SO totally knows our contractor, I’d imagine. He’s been based on your current town for a long time. I’ll withhold more comment in case he’s a friend

ekendall09 · December 2017

@kmalls that is so cool, what a treasure to keep in the family....loveeeeee the old farmhouses! I think ours is 1840, it was an old mill house at one point from what I understand.

Ha, he knows too many people, I can't keep up but as far as I know he isn't super close with any contractors that I can think of. And he has plenty of his own opinions on other tradesmen in the region haha

Our tree! Don't mind the airplane, just covering family photos

Loving all the pretty trees! Here's ours.

shireeallason · December 2017

Team white lights!! You all have such pretty trees.

I’m excited that we were able to decorate this year. Last Christmas little man had just started walking so we decided to decorate the wall instead, it didn’t have the same feeling!

I love Christmas!

Loving all the trees! Here's our's

psuxray07 · December 2017

Our tree

I want a tree skirt. But our cats like to lay on it and fur it up. We threw our last one away because of fur and cat puke, lol. DS helped put ornaments on, so I tried to rearrange a little bit haha.

jenotontx · December 2017

@irenejean I really like those chairs! Are they from Joybird?

sunshine27shy · December 2017

irenejean · December 2017

@JJMNO1616 They’re from Article, it’s called the Mod Chair.

Loving all the beautiful trees! I'm also jealous of the ladies with wrapped gifts!

okayrunner · December 2017

This is our first tree in my adult life. We’re all pretty excited about it. We don’t have a skirt or a star yet, but I’m going to wait for sales to purchase them.

luna8433 · December 2017

Currently all the ornament toddler hight are on the floor

rmmorris · December 2017

@psuxray07 have you thought about a tree collar? We also have troublesome cats and got a collar last year.

ftm_ohio · December 2017

@klburke88 LOVE the Disney ornaments!

@sapphires-and-diamonds LOVE, LOVE, LOVE that you have a train around your tree! So jealous of that!

psuxray07 · December 2017

@rmmorris no I've never heard of that. I just looked it up...that's a good idea!

sapphires-and-diamonds · December 2017

@ftm_ohio Thanks! It was a gift to DS from my parents and my grandma 2 years ago. It also has a setting that plays Christmas music and can steam real smoke. DS is obsessed and can be found like this most days:

ftm_ohio · December 2017

@sapphires-and-diamonds I bet he does love that!! One of our friends had a similar setup when I was growing up! I was always jealous! Adorable picture!

riversdoctor · December 2017

Well “because we can” we have two trees. One for our main living room and one for the basement. “My” tree has white and blue theme. Blue was my moms favorite color and she absolutely loved Christmas and family time it brought so this is my annual homage to her memory. The basement tree is all about letting dd express her creativity! We haven’t gotten the popcorn chain up because the cats kept eating it!!

When we are done with the the trees we will make pinecone bird feeders to hang in them and stand them outside for critters to live in.

nessa1632 · December 2017

This is our first tree together (we lived with in laws after getting married) so we don’t have a topper yet or a skirt but we do have a cool German Shepherd dog ornament

frenchiekinplusone · December 2017

@nessa1632 I LOVE that navy paint color!!

nessa1632 · December 2017

@frenchiekinplusone thanks! It’s Benjamin Moore Narragansett Green. It alternates between a navy and an ocean blue green depending on the light. I love it too!

mikkimikey · December 2017

Ignore that the tree is completely falling over sideways. They had both attempted to put the star on and it just didn’t get put back up straight yet! We have a ton of Disney ornaments and Hallmark ornaments starting from when I was a born. DH too!

mikkimikey · December 2017

Also, I’m totally AWing Logan’s First Christmas Ornament!

ftm_ohio · December 2017

@mikkimikey WHERE DID YOU GET THAT?!?!?! I need one like, right now! It's ADORABLE!

It’s a hallmark ornament! And it spins!

whatabout2ndbreakfast · December 2017

@klburke88 I love your disney ornaments! I saw one with the house from Up at the Disney store on black friday but someone else bought the last one!

@shireeallason What is that decoration on your wall?? I love it! I think I need one to display all our ornaments that don't fit on the tree!

My cat is obsessed with tree, but just wants to lay under it all the time.

@ftm_ohio @peppersmith22 I keep saying that when we get a bigger house with a basement, I'm going to have my own tree exclusively made up of Disney ornaments! I buy 1 or 2 new ones from the Hallmark Keepsake collection every year. This year's new entry is Jasmine & Aladdin on the magic carpet, and it plays 'A Whole New World'.

itsrandiyo · December 2017

awww all the trees look great! and props to ya'll who have presents wrapped and under them, I am SOOO behind.

shireeallason · December 2017

@peppersmith22 They are this neat product called Algue. It comes in individual pieces that you can put together in any configuration you want. Mount it to the wall or hang from the ceiling like a screen.Lots of fun colors too!

g_amoss · December 2017

Christmas hasn’t been great for a few years, but I’m trying to get into it. DH and I brought up the tree tonight. I think I donated my ornaments when I moved 2 years ago lol. It has white lights, but nothing else. Not worth a picture

I’m in awe of the beautiful trees you have!

danjoly · December 2017

That’s ours! What is great with a toddler is that you get to decorate it everyday as you put back decorations he pulled out! lol!
