Well we are 19 days out from Christmas and I feel like one hot mess! The tree isn't up, the cards aren't finished, there's plenty of shopping looming and I still haven't decided on my menu for Christmas dinner.
The tree is being shipped to us this week and I hope to have it decorated this weekend. After tossing our old one last year it seemed like such a daunting task to find the perfect replacement. I finally did, but it was online only. Oh well, at least there's free shipping.
I love picking the perfect picture for our Christmas card...I just haven't found it yet and it's stressing me out! With rain all last weekend there was no opportunity to take pictures! This weekend it is make or break. I thought when we took the kids to see Santa there would be the option of using that picture, but Ella had no love for Santa this year and Jack wouldn't smile. Oy vey!
I am about 50% finished with our shopping and right on budget. On the bright side, I know what I am getting for everyone....now if I can just find the time to actually get into a store and shop.
As for Christmas dinner....right now I am thinking of tackling a beef tenderloin. I hope to go through my recipe book and pull together the menu this weekend.
'Tis the season to be......jolly, right?
