I was going to have this be a post showing all of my latest Christmas decorations. For some reason, blogger is only allowing me to add one picture to this post, which happens to be this one showcasing my Gone with the Wind collection.I don't mind that at all actually. Of all the things in my house to have displayed I am probably most excited about this. When I was in the 8th grade I got hooked on the movie Gone with the Wind. I wanted more than anything to be a Southern Belle like Scarlett O'Hara (minus the attitude of course). Over time my collection of memorabilia has started to grow. In high school I was given the video collection and purchased the book for myself. Later I was given figurines. A little over a year ago Matt gave me the DVD. Now I have Christmas ornaments and these beautiful collector plates that use to adorn the walls of my grandmother's bedroom. I use to stare up at them in awe when I was a child. Now I feel so fortunate have them be the first items that welcome all my guests into my home. It's a beautiful collection; one that represents to me one of the most important themes of the timeless classic: home is where we find our strength to rebuild ourselves after any "battle."
