I've been inspired by other blogs I follow, and I am going to follow suit and create a holiday checklist! This might be a little ambitious...but I do love the holidays and want to make them extra special this year since it will be little Truman's first Christmas. Obviously he won't know the difference, but I will! Besides, having him around makes everything better!! So, here it goes!!
- Pick and cut a real Christmas tree (we did this last year and it was
exhaustingfun!!!) - Have a festive brunch with friends
- Enjoy Festivus at my sisters house (has become a favorite, if you aren't aware of all Festivus has to offer please see here.)
- Have a holiday movie marathon (Elf, Home Alone, The Family Stone, ect.) with the fireplace roaring
- Wear Christmas pj's while doing the above
- Have a candy making day with the usual suspects
- Brave Black Friday and then have a great breakfast with my boys
- Mail Christmas cards with Truman's precious little face on them
- Create a happy holiday chalkboard display
- Participate in our local Shop with a Cop (charity event)
- Take Truman to our old fashion Twilight Christmas parade and to see Santa for the first time
- Take
tonssome pictures of above - Take Truman on his first flight! Going to Rochester, New York in December to visit Chris's family :)
- Find new stockings for the 3 of us! Hopefully monogrammed!!!
- Put the dogs in their fabulous Christmas sweaters
- Listen to my favorite Christmas tunes while decorating
- Secret Santa at work
- Make a special treat for Chris to take to his co-workers
- Finish decorating, shopping, stressing, cleaning, cooking, in plenty of time to enjoy what will be our best Christmas ever :)
