It's beginning...

...to look a lot like Christmas!!!


The tree is up and decorated, the presents are wrapped (the ones that are here), and the stockings are on the mantle! Christmas time here we come!! Christmas has always been a special holiday for me and probably my favorite one. This year will be the first year that I will not be celebrating our traditional family Christmas Eve celebration in NC with my side of the family. It's a little hard, but it's neat to make our own traditions as our own little family as well. Plus, this year will be the first year that we get to go to ALL of the family stuff on both sides of the family. So, on Christmas Eve, Greg and I will have the night to celebrate Christmas with each other by eating a big meal I plan on making and going to church at our church. On Christmas morning we will wake up and head to Greg's cousin's house for the extended family gathering. Then later in the afternoon, we will head to Cindy and Thomas' for the Glawson/Jones clan celebration. The next morning we will wake up bright and early and head to NC for my extended family's gathering at my aunt's house. Finally, on Sunday, we will celebrate with the Hatley/Glawson bunch...as you can see, this will be a busy, packed, but super fun holiday season!!! I love, love, love Christmas and I can't wait for all the baking, craft making, gift giving, and memory making that comes with such a special holiday!
