Santa will be harnessing Rudolph to a candy apple red speed boat when he visits Kelly’s, of The Lily Pad Cottage, Michigan lake house this year!

Nothing says Christmas like bouncy ball ornaments in a window box!

We’re both named Kelly and we both have the same tile (mine in my shower) – maybe we were separated at birth?

Check out one of the most fabulous Christmas House Tours I’ve ever seen.

Isn’t Kelly’s chalkboard wreath amazing – you have to see how she did it.

    Everything is beautiful but those window boxes have to be some of the best I’ve seen. Also love that chalk art. It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas, everywhere I go!
