CHRISTmas Tour of Homes 2013

Happy Friday the 13th my friends.  How was your day?  How was your week?  I was only at work for 2 days this week due to the death and funeral of my grandfather, but for a Friday the 13th, my day wasn't bad at all.  Actually, today our office had a CHRISTmas luncheon and played CHRISTmas movies during it. We watched A CHRISTmas Vacation with Chevy Chase and A CHRISTmas Story.  It was a nice way to break up the monotony of the work day.  Tomorrow night is our holiday party and it's a black tie affair so I'm super excited because hubby will be in a Tux and me in a long red dress.  I hope our pictures turn out good. ;)

Anyway, on to the reason you are here:  I am linking up with Kelly over at Kelly's Korner for her annual CHRISTmas Tour of Homes 2013.  I can't wait to see what everyone else's tours look like.  However, mine is minimal due to running out of time with traveling during Thanksgiving and again for my grandfather's funeral.  Both were out of state and in Arkansas.  So, again, I hope you will forgive my minimal decor.  So without further adieu:
