I'm about to get stupid

I hope you all had a wonderful holiday weekend!  

I spent lots of time with family, counted my blessings, avoided the mall like the plague 

and started getting my Christmas on...

Tree is up.

(with both colored and white lights so I can plug whatever one I want in when the mood strikes)

Kids are ecstatically counting down the days.

Fireplace has been getting a workout.

And I hear we might be getting a bit of the white stuff this week ...

I freaking LOVE Christmas and the holiday season.

life is good
