Christmases of CL & SA Past

This is not what I planned to blog about today.

But I seem to have misplaced my camera cord, so I can't download the pics I took.

Bummer. On to plan b...

A couple weeks ago I went a little scan happy after flipping through past December issues

of Cottage Living and a couple Southern Accents.

Thought I'd share them in all their Christmas loveliness.

Oh how I love this little Carolina Cottage. 

I have stared at the pics time and time again.

It is one of my all time favorites.

I just wish they showed every room from every angle.  Is that asking too much?

New England perfection...

These next two are stored away for Andrew & Charlie's teen years.  Such a great boy space.

The color of the back of the door - mmmm..

The mix of woods, the light fixtures, the plaid...

What a perfect spot for breakfast on Christmas morning.  Or any morning for that matter. Or any meal.

I'm still a week away from putting anything Christmassy out in our home.

Thanksgiving comes first.

Ok, off to search for my camera cord some more.

It really drives me bonkers when I misplace something.

And my house is semi tidy since I had friends over last night. 

Charlie?  Have you been up to mischief again? 

If you want more of a Cottage Living fix see Julie's post today.

Cheers!
