Ok so we are a little gung-ho....


All done!

Helping with the tree-every year they get more and more helpful! It's nice!

The mess--ughhh! Thankfully it didn't last long!:)

I know-I know....everyone keeps talking about not "forgetting" Thanksgiving--jumping right to Christmas commercialism...blah blah blah---don't worry we haven't forgotten to be thankful---we are very thankful Christmas is only 32 days away;)
Ok- all kidding aside we have a very good reason that we have already decorated for Christmas....... because we LOVE IT! And why wait till the day after Thanksgiving if you can do it now and enjoy it for 32 days????? -it seems very logical to me!
So we are enjoying it but sadly Reese can't quite grasp when Santa is coming. Whenever he wakes up from either his nap or in the morning he runs into the living room and checks his stocking--I think I am gonna have to do a countdown to Christmas chart with him!
Also since this is my blog and since you (being the reader) willingly choose to read my ramblings I am gonna use this space to brag. Yes I said brag---we are "OFFICIALLY" done Christmas shopping and I am very thrilled about that! No last minute cramming for us! Oh no while you all are frantically running through the malls I will be sipping hot chocolate by the fire laughing at all you chumps:) hehe!

Good for you...now I will give you my list. Why should I waste my time when you are so efficient.

This was my plan too- only my goal was to be done by November 15th! Oh the plans that we make and our children destory- :) Sterling came instead and now I am so far behind that I will be one of those chumps. :(

Enjoy your fire, and hot chocolate, and decor- I am not jealous at all ;)

I have to admit I'm jealous- you have a baby--I would take that over Christmas shopping any day! So thrilled to hear she is doing better--praise the Lord! (I need to hold her soon:)
