I do not do a lot of decorating for Christmas time, just the tree and Stockings Really, I keep it very simply!! i would normally hang them from the Mantel, but Gabriel will pull everyone down and everything with it, so i will find a spot for them out of his reach, 
most of my ornaments are vintage ones, besides what the little ones pick out. My 4 year old Sadi just wants to use the tree for a play space for her Dinosaurs and Dragons right now... Still working on decorating it its a work in process especially when you have a 21 month old who just wants to eat the lights that i had put on it, so we have no lights this year, or last year...lol
