Newest Additions to My Christmas Decor

In addition to the few items I bought at local craft fairs this season, the family gifted me items to add to our ever-growing Christmas decor collection.

Books Under My Tree

Christmas was over in a blur... as is often the case. However, the fun times with family and all the memories we made will last forever. 

While I didn't specifically ask for any books this year, my family treated me to three really great ones--the first of which was on my wish list. The second book is a special B&N edition of Anne of Green Gables. 

Did you receive any books for Christmas? What are you most looking forward to reading?
