Combs Christmas Tour

Ryland says, "Welcome to our home!"


Would you like to see all of our Christmas decorations? Check out our door decoration. We saw something like it at Trees and Trends and upon checking the price tag thought, "I could totally do that." = )


We think it looks great beside our sled, you know, just in case of snow!


C'mon inside. Next to our door we plugged in a cute little tree that we got on our Thanksgiving trip to Alabama. It used to sit on our porch when we lived there.


Now it hangs out next to our baker's rack where we have our one and only Nativity (I laughed to myself when Dr. Jackson said at church this Sunday that everyone has them all over the house.)


We have more of a snowman collection around here. If you look in our kitchen you might notice our snowman rug.


After you catch a load of our new Frosty fridge, that is! (Thank goodness for Pinterest!)


There are reindeer prancing on our coffee table.


Just past the coffee table is our tree.


We decorated it in red and green with snowmen and homemade ornaments made from old Christmas cards.

There are also several special new ornaments. Each of the kids have their initial bedecking a branch.





Then there's our new olive wood ornament from Bethlehem.




Right now there's only one present under the tree (that will be changing very soon!) so we let Piper decorate the bottom of the tree today.


But then she tried to unwrap that one present! Something tells me she's going to enjoy this aspect of Christmas especially if we let her eat the wrapping paper. = )


Next to the tree is Jackie's Christmas cactus. We're so excited that it's going to be blooming for this Christmas.


If you head down our hall, you're sure to notice the giant stockings on each door. The kids are hoping they'll wake up and have those stockings FULL!


The first room you come to down the hall is the guest bathroom. Yes, we even decorated the bathroom!



Keeleigh's room. She has a white tree that she decorated with bright, fun ornaments and pink lights.



Keeleigh's tree looks super cool at night!


The tree in the boys' room is covered with some of their favorite things--dinosaurs!


Mama and Daddy's room is red, white, and blue...country all the way.




In their bathroom, however, the theme is silver and gold and pearls.


And that concludes our tour!

Whew, we're beat.

5 Reasons I Should Stay Off Facebook

1. TMI So, I remember the weirdest things but one brief conversation I had over 10 years ago stands out to me. It was high school and like all high school girls I had friends, enemies, and frienemies. One of my then-frienemies (we've grown up since then!) was friends with one of my enemies. Standing by the lockers one day, frienemy walks up and says in reference to enemy something like, "She shares too much information. Sometimes it's almost like, 'Hey, guys. I just farted.'" Of course, at the time I ate this up and laughed at her expense but over the years it's been a little reminder that more often than not I need to shut up. Just shut up. I've often been tempted (and have too often given in to the temptation) to over share. I think the Internet feels far safer than it really is. I need to remember that. 2. Friends...or Stalkers? Speaking of "friends", I have 321 of them. I know that number is much higher for many of you, but

Piper's Birth Story

My entire fourth pregnancy had been different than any other. I didn't have one bit of morning sickness and my baby bump didn't "pop" for months and months. At each of my first and second trimester doctor appointments my blood pressure was absolutely perfect. While I knew that whatever would happen would happen, I held out hope that the uniqueness of this pregnancy would extend into the third trimester and birth--that I would not have pre-eclampsia for the first time and that I would have the experience of going into labor on my own. At my doctor's appointment, one day before the 37 week mark, the nurse frowned as she took my pressure. It was 140/100. She took it again and the doctor took it and then they sent me to the hospital for an evaluation which included serial blood pressure readings and various tests. All the tests came back "stone-cold normal" as my doctor put it. I did not have pre-eclampsia. But the doctor did suggest I take it easy and try
