Christmas at Casa Watson












Last night our little abode was on the Christmas Home Tour for the Newton-Conover Education Foundation. This was our first year of truly decorating our home for the holidays, last year we were still in survival mode with Ben!

In our Christmas decorating we incorporated Scottish elements to pay tribute to the Watson roots and fresh greenery, shells, pine cones, twigs and the like to remind us of California. In the guest suite/Leah's office upstairs, Leah embraced her love of all things French and a French/Canadian man on the tour even asked if she were French!

It was a fun and busy night, about 250 people came throughout the evening. We enjoyed meeting more of our neighbors and sharing in the Christmas spirit. Ben stayed with our friends during the tour and was excited to stay up until 8:30 PM and thankfully came home and slept like a champ all night.

Merry Christmas from our home to yours!
