We joke with Mom that her new sport is decorating. The house transforms with every holiday. I don't mean just the normal (almost cheesy) decorations you can buy. We're talking starting from scratch. She makes mostly everything have her own touch. She paints, glues, mode podges, and puts together three different things to make nothing come together into something brilliant. My favorite this past year has been, like I've said before, her table settings. Growing up, dinner as a family was a huge deal. We were always home from our friends house or after school activity by dinner time so we could always have it as a family. It makes it a lot more fun when you have a gorgeous table to sit at. I feel like I'm at Martha Stewart's home every time I come visit. Way to go Mama!
