Paola Christmas Home Tour

Mike and I talked for a couple of years about being on the "Christmas Home Tour" in our area. We collected Christmas decorations for most of the 6 years that we have known each other. We have so many decorations that it actually became cumbersome!!! They filled two garages and my basement when I lived in Overland Park. Never, in my imagination, would we need more Christmas decorations.
Well, after actually signing up for the tour, we knew we needed help to get the house ready. Mike asked 4 friends, Cindy Porter, Diane Husted, Pam King, and Kathy Peace, to help us. They decided they could come every Friday, for 4 weeks. These are Wonderful People! They are so talented and creative! Their last week is this coming Friday. They still have a lot to do.
Each bedroom has unique decorations. Both kitchens are beautiful. We did have to purchase a lot more decorations, but they needed to fit the rooms here, at Casa Somerset, not old homes that we owned before!

We hope that you will come out to Paola for the Christmas Home Tour. It is Saturday, 12/5.
The tour is 11am to 4pm. The tickets are $10.00 each.

A couple of our close friends are also on the home tour this year. Brenda and Steve have a beautiful Victorian home in the city of Paola. I can't wait to see their house. Also, Vickie and Paul, who have a farm, are on the tour.
Mike and I are not sure how we will see all of the houses when we are on the tour! We would love to see all of you on the 5th!
Take care...
Christine and Mike
