4 more days....
















I think I pretty much get into the holiday spirit around Thanksgiving. It's just my fav time of year and I enjoy the build up to the 25th of December.....Jesus' birthday. And I've learned over the years to not stress...to do what is necessary but to enjoy as you go along. And I think I have really been getting better each year with that. I did some final shopping yesterday, picked up Chrissy from getting her holiday hair cut and then hit the grocery store. I had my list and was planning on buying everything I need from now until Christmas. I had menu plans and recipes out....you just can't get anymore prepared than that!

and for some silly reason, as I was leaving the grocery store, that holiday spirit smacked me in the face again. I just felt good......excited and happy about.... well, everything! And no, I wasn't drinking..... haha......here are just a bunch of pics from around the house, us making candy and our little guy Maddox!

later.......
