Looks like I get to start this one!

Any one else looking forward to Christmas?

I love Christmas. Doesn't help that SO is such a scrooge that I double my efforts to enjoy it. Started my baking and decorating yesterday.

Hi!
I love christmas too!! Almost done all my xmas shopping (missing 3 gifts only) but I know what I'm buying so just waiting for next pay check
Started decorating too but not done yet. Have to get a move on!!
Love December, it's a exciting month for us because it is my son's birthday month! (17).
Can't wait to see his face when he opens his gifts!!

I LOVE christmas. My DH is sounds a lot like your SO...he is such a scrooge. I too feel like I have to be extra jolly during the holidays to overcome his holiday grouchiness. We went christmas shopping last night and it was packed. He said "never again." I don't mind the crowds. But he gets overwhelmed. We are going to set up our tree tonight. Yay! I love christmas trees! I usually bake a lot during christmas, but I'm not sure I will have time this year. We have all these holiday parties with our new offices and DH's giant family, plus I scheduled my next arch exam for January...I've got to cram this month.

Vicky-What did you get your son for his birthday/christmas?

Hi there

I can't believe it's Christmas time already! I love this holiday!! Thankfully I'm all done shopping. I went out on Black Friday and did it all in one shot! Vicky, looks like Hunter is going to have a great birthday/Christmas

Love Christmas too! I'm done shopping for my kids, but still need DH, a work gift for a Yankee Swap and various other random gifts.

Just finished up DD's birthday party yesterday so I'm finally in the X-mas mood!

I'm not a huge Christmas lover myself, but I like that it brings family together, and everyone seems happy! This year, we agreed to stockings only, but you can fit a lot of neat things in a stocking Rules are made to be broken, right?

I am..I love Christmas and Im so excited because my DS seems to understand more this year and is getting really excited too!

Im in school though and I have 4 papers to write by the end of december so Im really stressed about that and I dont have much time to do fun christmas things. Although we did go to a breakfast with Santa at the firehall the other day. My DS loved it!

I am almost done my shopping though. I do almost all of it on Amazon! Its awesome!

This time of year is so busy, work is insane and I have so much to do, and we shut down between Christmas and new year so I lose a week. It's starting to get really hot here, we hit the mid thirties today and it's just the start of summer.
