| Welcome to a BILTMORE ESTATE CHRISTMAS 2016 |
George and I celebrated Christmas on 12/14/16 at the Biltmore Estate in Asheville, NC. And the best news for us was that we (everyone) could now take pictures inside the home (as long as we did not use the flash). We had not been inside the big home for several years (mainly because they didn't allow photos to be taken)--- SO it was like a brand-new experience for us... Oh My HEART.... Did we have a great time!!!!!!!! WOW.....
The theme this year is "Hearth and Home" ---so their decorations paid special attention to the many fireplaces in the house.... Did you know that there were at least 70 elaborate, hand decorated trees in that mansion? Unbelievable!!!! (I'll show pictures of some of the many trees soon.) There was live music (choirs, instrumentalists, etc.) throughout each area --so just being there with all of that colorful beauty and the sounds of Christmas music all around made me feel as if I was truly in heaven on earth... Thanks to George for this wonderful Christmas present!!!!! THAT is what Christmas is all about to me...
Today, I'll share just a few pictures of some of the gorgeous HEARTHS in the home... Hope you enjoy seeing these pictures of SUCH an amazingly beautiful home... You can click on them for enlargements.

I'll close with a picture of the Winter Garden area inside the house... (The first and last pictures are NOT mine. I got them from the Biltmore site since their pictures turned out MUCH better than mine.) IF you want to read/see more info about the Biltmore Christmas, click HERE. We highly recommend a trip to Biltmore --especially at Christmas.
Merry Christmas to you and yours.
Hugs,
