Christmas Day at My Parents

[siteorigin_widget class=”SiteOrigin_Widget_Image_Widget”][/siteorigin_widget]
Christmas has come and gone.  The paper has long since been stuffed in the trash but it was oh so beautiful while it lasted.  Here are some photos of my parent’s house on Christmas Day.  There are 47 in my immediate family so there are many table scattered through my parent’s home.  Each table is decorated with wrapped gifts which contain Christopher Radko Ornaments for each person present.  Here are the various tables and other decorations throughout the house.  Join me on a little tour.
