It can't be Christmas yet!!!!

First of all this is my first blog and lets just say my gift isn't in writing proper. I am from Arkansas and I know that's not an excuse but I choose to use it right now ;-).

Wow! I can't believe how fast time flies! It seems like from the time I got married until now has just flown by to fast for words. Christmas season is finally among us, only 15 more days until it's finally here. This is my favorite holiday and not because of the presents (although that is a nice perk! haha! just teasing) but because of the reason we celebrate. This Holiday is different that all the others and it's so fun to see everyone getting into the spirit of Christmas. I can't wait until 10 years go by... my house will be flooded with Christmas decor! This year we won't be here for Christmas day and we will be spending that time with my family on a vacation to Maui. Naturally, I am very excited about this trip and I am looking forward to seeing the ocean and having my feet firmly planted on the sand. But a little piece of me is going to miss being here in my Christmas sweater in front of our tree opening presents and our stockings from Santa.

I am so exciting to be able to have two wonderful families now. It's a blessing to have a double dose of love! It's going to be fun when we start to have a family and get to share all the exciting traditions and making up a few along the way. I can't believe how fast December has flown already it seems like there isn't any time to prepare anymore! ahhhhhh! Ok now I realize I must go shopping! haha! I better get a move on! Bye bye!!
