I am ready for Christmas...

I know some of you are groaning that I am even thinking about Christmas. But the truth of the matter is I am and there is nothing you can do to change that. I am eagerly awaiting the day I can get my wonderful husband to bring the tree up from the basement and I can enter the world of snowmen, travel back in time to the nativity and all the other magical things that happen during this wonderful season.
I was planning on starting on the decorating the first week of November but now I am going to be taking a Girls getaway trip(more details later) and so the decorating must wait another week or two. I am putting a poll on the sidebar, I would like to know when you do your decorating. Well now that I have said all that I hope everyone had a great weekend, I am off to clean the house and listen to Christmas music.

I love Christmas!! I have forced myself to wait a little for Christmas music but I am about ready to start full force! (Watch out, Mark!) :) As for decorating, we usually wait until after Thanksgiving. I like to enjoy this holiday as well. We usually go out of town the day after Thanksgiving, so it doesn't usually get up until the next week.

Hi Melissa, I can't resist commenting here. As for decorating for Christmas; I'm sure you remember the year that you,your mom and Matt came over and dug out my ratty tree and insisted that I get started. That must have been about the second week in Dec.!! I guess I was feeling "blue" that year with the kids gone and the nest empty. Anyway, thanks for caring. I love you, Sis.Shirley
