Merry Christmas #2

Finally! A Christmas that hasn't snuck up on me! A Christmas where I'm not panicking to get my shopping finished or my gifts wrapped! Having my family's first Christmas in November really helped me get "in the spirit" early and jumpstart the Christmas planning.

This Christmas (the December one) is bringing many "firsts":

- the first time the Christmas tree has been up for so long that I'm actually getting bored of how it's decorated (I haven't re-decorated it yet)

- the first time I've had to DUST the presents under the tree

- the first time the weather has prevented me from putting up Christmas lights (maybe that's a good thing, to avoid problems later!)

- the first time I haven't been stressed out about the holiday season

- the first time I've baked Christmas goodies 3 times

We hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas! Don't forget to sing "Happy Birthday" to Jesus!
