It's been HOW LONG??!!!?!

It only took the third person pointing out to me that almost a month has past since I've last written on here. Shame on me, right!?!?

Well a little update on the last month. We had a great Thanksgiving. We spent it home this year and celebrated with my family. It's always fun to get together with family. Of course Thanksgiving being over meant that I could finally listen to Christmas music out in the open!! :)
Rob and I got to see TSO (Trans-Siberian Orchestra) in concert and it was FABULOUS!! I think I've convinced him that we should go EVERY year. I could definately make that a tradition!

The Christmas season has been hectic! Between church parties and school parties, and throw in a little life in general in there, and it has just been crazy. At least this year we are ahead as far as gifts go, and I got my Christmas cards out on time! (is it cheating if I made photo card in photoshop?? it just makes life so easy!!).

Despite the hectic times, Christmas remains my favorite time of year. (and no, not for the presents..although who doesn't like presents!?!). I really enjoy the lights, the sounds, usually the cold weather (it was 75 today tho...totally killing my christmas mood), I love it all. It always comes too fast and is over before we know it. I'm trying to enjoy this last week before Christmas, and am trying to cram as much holiday-ness as I possibly can (read: CHRISTMAS TREATS!!!) :) After all, what's Christmas without a little divinity and gingerbread men. mmm.

Oh, and here are 2 shares. First is our Christmas card...I'm a little biased, but I think it turned out cute. And the second share is ornaments that I made. Total out of pocket cost was less that $2. I already had all the ribbons!
