Sounds like a perfect Christmas Day to me. :merrytree:

We've started but I haven't even got all my inside Christmas decorations up yet. I'm really dragging this year. Maybe after church we can fly in and get a bunch done. :lights:


I am dragging too. Too much to do other than bring in Christmas :D :D boxes, but barely started displaying items. BUT it will come for both of us and then we'll sing!

I have been looking forward to that Christmas movie. Watched Hitched for the Holidays the other night. It was too Christmas cute. I could consider buying that one.

I wish there was a channel (either online or on TV) that streamed Christmas movies all year. I do realize that you can find a lot on YouTube, but I really do like the Hallmark movies!!

I did finish the wreath and hung it on the garage. I will get pictures up tomorrow. I also hope to set up my Christmas village tomorrow.

Last night we had 5 minutes of rain! It dropped our temperatures and I added a top sheet to our bed. I was dancing around the room because it was COOL! Now that put me in the Christmas spirit even deeper than before. :flake: :flake:

A cousin sent me a picture of a beautiful male cardinal sitting on a perch on one of her bird houses amidst a soft snow shower. Ah........memories of Christmas past flooded my heart! :snowwow: :snowgirl:

Surprise! I found a triple roll of Christmas gift wrap in the top of my coat closet! I cannot remember when I purchased this foiled paper, but it is bright and cheerful. Hurrah! :hohat:
