First Christmas in a new house

This year is going to be our first Christmas in our cute little house so I want to make it a good one. Obviously we are on a budget so I can't go all out the way I want to but I have a pretty good theme in mind. Pink and Black!

Ok, not very traditional I know but honestly we're not very traditional people and I just think it sounds like so much fun.

Pink my my favorite color and black is Nathan's and it just so happens that those colors go really well together so it works out well.

We've decided to buy a white Christmas tree. And my idea is that every year we can have a new color or theme. I've always loved white trees and I think they are a great blank canvas for different themes each year.

So the plan is to get a bunch of black and pink ornaments to put all over the tree as well as get black and pink stockings for me, Nathan, Jackson, Audrey and Lacey (black for boys and pink for girls)

The only other things I plan on buying (because like I said we are on a major budget) are a few lights for the house We're not gonna do a lot because that would get expensive. I just want a few and every year we can add a few more to our collection. and I want to make a wreath for the front door. I'm thinking something like this...



Only with some black added in but we'll see what I end up with I might just buy one because sadly... I'm not crafty.

So yeah, those are my plans and again sorry I only update this thing once in a blue moon!

Happy Holidays yall :)
