Dashing through the snow...

WHAT?!?! Get real!!! This is South Mississippi meaning we are expecting a high of 72 today!!! Yes, it is the 20th day of December here as well and no, Mother Nature does not have a clue that it is supposed to be cold and snowing!!! Oh well, my family and I may just sweat to death on Christmas day, but we WILL look good in our sweaters and jeans with the whole shabang {no, I am not sure that I spelled that correctly} of scarves, toboggans and mittens no matter the outside temps...WE WILL LOOK GOOD!!!

Okay, so the real reason that I am blogging today is to share a fun and easy last minute gift idea with y'all! You know, because you are sure to run into someone that you really should have gotten a gift for {but you completely forgot to since you have like a gazillion other things going on right now!}...yeah, for moments just like that! So, here ya go...head over to Our Best Bites and check out the candy bar wrappers...they are the PERFECT {oh snap! I forgot to get her a gift} gift EVER!!!

Okie dokie...I gotta run! You see, I have a fun group of ladies coming over tonight for a game of Bunco, food, gifts and fun and my house looks as if a bomb exploded within the walls!!! YIKES!!! I will make it happen!!!

Happy day to each of you and may you have a very BLESSED CHRISTmas!!!

It's beginning to look alot like CHRISTmas...

but boy, it is at a VERY SLOW pace!!!

So, I wanted a "real" tree this year instead of artificial. In turn, this meant that it would not be wise to do my usual "have the entire house deorated two days after Halloween" routine {unless I would be perfectly fine with a dead tree a month before CHRISTmas} and boy has that put a snag in the entire decorating process. With the usual hustle and bustle that comes along with the holiday season, I am finding that my "real" tree has been up for three days now and still isnt completely decorated!!! As a matter of fact, my fall wreath still adorns the front door...ugh!!! Hopefully, I can finish up today...we shall see!

In paper crafting news, I am giving the December Daily a try. Goodness knows that I have enough CHRISTmas paper and embellishments to do like a gazillion ten of them! {Oh, come on...you know that you have the same obsession with pretty paper!} I am also making a good bit of my CHRISTmas ornaments for the tree as well as our CHRISTmas cards, giftwrap and tags...yeah, I kinda put a tad too much on my holiday to-do list...kinda!

Okie dokie...time to get this party started...remember, I have a few things to get done today...

Stay warm and stay tuned as I may just find time to share some photos of all of the chaos :)

Merry CHRISTmas to you and yours...M
