I am so excited that Christmas is exactly 2 weeks away!
I am proud to say that I am basically done with my shopping. I only have a few more presents to get.
I have also begun to wrap my presents. I still have most of the presents to wrap, but I am waiting for Josh to be home to watch Alyse so I can really concentrate on the job. I take my wrapping very seriously! I am a professional wrapper! (That is a joke because in high school, I worked at a Hallmark store. I had to take a "class" on how to properly wrap and make bows. I passed and received my certificate and pin to wear. You didn't know that I was so talented did you?)
Anyway, I do have some baking to do too, but I am going up to Raleigh tomorrow and Mom and I are going to work on that together. I expect that everything will be done by this weekend!
Then, next week, the Christmas events begin. I am hosting a cookie exchange and our annual Christmas party. I am so excited! Everything is all decorated and ready to go!
I have been promising you some pictures, so here are a few:
The family room tree
(This one is snowflake themed)
Our stockings hung by the fireplace with care.
Alyse's Christmas Tree
(It is decorated in purple and pink.)
Our dining room
(This room is all "gift" themed.)
These are just a few of the trees. We also have our "family" tree in our bedroom. It has all the ornaments like "Our 1st Christmas Together" and ones that we got in college, from my past students, and vacations. I guess you will just have to come over to see the rest of the decorations. They look better in real life anyways.
