Christmas is coming!

Last week was a long one!  Jarrod was gone on business for the longest trip he's had in a really long day...six days!  We sure did enjoy having him back and we made the most of our weekend.  We decorated for Christmas!!

I'm really glad to see others decorating earlier now, too.  I hate explaining to people why we decorate so early.  Does it really matter???  Since we started celebrating Christmas the week of Thanksgiving with our family in Ohio, it has just made sense for us to decorate before turkey day.  And besides, it's gorgeous and I LOVE a house decorated for the holidays.  This is my favorite time of the year...everything is so magical and exciting.  Seeing each day through the eyes of my kids make everything so exciting.  I can't wait for Spike the Elf to make his appearance again! 

What else is new here?  We're gearing up for that big surprise room makeover for Gavin this week.  I cannot wait to do it.  Jarrod is taking the day off and we're going to try to knock it all out on Friday and do the reveal for Gavin when he gets home.  He's going to be so blown away!

Besides that, I've been working on Christmas lists, working my very busy TS calendar, and preparing for our long drive coming up.  I'm really anxious about 12 hours in the van with Riley, but I cannot wait to see them being spoiled by our Ohio family and friends.  It's going to be a great week!
