Christmas. Christmas, Christmas, CHRISTMAS!!!! I'm a Christmas junkie, I don't mind admitting it. It's such a beautiful time of year. Here in New Zealand the weather is warmer, we are all outdoors a lot longer (daylight savings allows for this), and we are all generally happier. Then there is the whole Christmas experience - the traditions, eating, drinking, giving...relaxing and having a ball - what's not to like??!!!
I am slowly converting my house into a verifiable Christmas experience for my beautiful boy. At almost 2 years old, I'm determined that this will be a spectacular Christmas for him. I just hadn't counted on us (LOML and I) going to America for a business conference mere weeks before the big day.
So far I have the tree up and decorated (along with the lounge), a new wreath has been made and hung on the front door, new bunting has been made to accommodate our much larger lounge. Santa sacks have been made, advent calender is being constructed, and extra decorations are being made...whew, not bad considering it's not even December yet!
Tomorrow's job? Bake the Christmas Cake!
What about you? Are you excited too?
