December-Tis the season!

Tis the season!  So I have and try to resist the decorating and bringing the tree out until December 1st.  So we have our tree out.  However no decor on it yet.  I decided with Clara in a curious stage and the love to sticking things in her mouth that we would wait until about a week until Christmas to put up the decorations.  The hubs spent some time outside with our lovely decorations made by my brother in law.  We need to get more lights for him to hang on the house but its more then I have ever had on my own place.  The hubs repainted the fire place so its now time to get the kiddos stockings put out.  I still need to order Clara and the twin's stockings so they can be hung too.  We have a few cold days but none that I need my big puffy jacket scarf or gloves.  Some days are good enough to want some hot chocolate.  I cant wait until its the week of Christmas and getting to see the Christmas lights out and reading Christmas stories and snuggling up watching Christmas movies!  I love Christmas time.  I just hope that it turns out to feeling like the holidays since we are far from my family.
