Christmas is where? Here? Already?

Where did December go? I feel like it was just Thanksgiving and I blinked and here we are at Christmas. I love love love Christmas, always have. When I was a kid there was no way I was sleeping on Christmas Eve. I can remember laying there awake and often asking (way too often) if it was time to get up yet. I would often sneak to the bathroom to peek at the tree and see if Santa had arrived yet, but I never looked at the gifts. Ever since I can remember I've always loved the surprise!

When I was in second grade my teacher, Mrs. Thomas, asked us to write a story about our family traditions for Christmas. I'm not sure if I didn't think mine were good enough or what, but I flat out lied. I wrote this story about how we woke up, held hands and sang carols around the tree. Seriously? I have no idea what I was thinking, but it's been a standing joke in our family for the last 25 years.

I hope you all have a fabulous Christmas and I hope to blog more in 2011. In that regard I am going to *try* and take part in Project 365 to take (and share) a photo every day. My life is pretty boring, so don't expect too much!

Merry Christmas!
