Christmas

Oh my goodness, it is hard for me to fathom that it is already December 1rst and Christmas is just 3 1/2 weeks away. This is always the time of the year that I have to ask myself "where did this year go!?". I'm going to try to slow down and really appreciate the month of December this year. All of my Christmas shopping is done, presents are all wrapped, and the kids are excited for what is to come. We went to the "Way of Lights" last week, which is a ginormous drive-through display of Christmas lights and it tells the story of Jesus. It took us a good 30-40 minutes to drive through it, and both Eve and Cole were entranced the entire time. I love that they are both (especially Eve this year) getting to the age where Christmas is truly a magical time for them. Before we had kids, I was a bit of a Scrooge, but that has all changed now! I find myself getting as excited as Eve and Cole everytime we see a house lit up with lights or when a holiday movie comes on TV!! So anyways, here is hoping all of you have a great month of December and that you take the time to slow down and appreciate the holiday season!
