i've been hit by the christmas spirit!


YAY!!! i'm soooo excited! i never have a set day as to when i put up the tree....i generally try to wait until thanksgiving but most of the time i just decide on a whim and it's usually horrible timing! but when i get the urge there's no stopping me! last night for example: i should have been decorating cake and i had been to walmart like 2 times but i needed a christmas centerpiece for my dining room table so i went. when i got to walmart(its like 5:30 now) i remembered that i needed some new lights for the tree and then it hit me(the christmas spirit). i just had to get home to put the tree up...the kids needed supper and i had a half done cake in the kitchen but instead i drug out the box with the tree and ornaments and up it went! the kids did get to eat by the way and then they helped me put on all the ornaments most of them homemade by them. those are the best kind. there's no need to have a tree with all matching ornaments and ribbon when there's handmade memories to look at. i just love it. it makes me happy. we did have to get the house cleaned up before daddy got home....it was a total mess. but the kids helped and the house looked wonderful and christmas-y! now if abram will just get the lights on the house we will be complete! i love the holidays!
