I love this time of year. Not a big fan of cold and wet, but other than that I love this season. I love Thanksgiving, and I cannot wait to explode with Christmas exitement. Now those of you who have spent a few Christmas' with me know that I get the Christmas itch the first week of November or so. You also know that there is always someone in my life that contains that itch, in my younger days in was my dad, then in college my all too sensible roomate, now, my beloved husband. In all cases they spend about 26 days trying to keep me in check (in respect for the beloved Thanksgiving) and then can't believe it when all my bottled-up Christmas love comes popping out as soon and The Thanksgiving pie is consumed. So this is me right now:
Taking in all the early Christmas decorations like they are best friends and quickly covering my mouth when a Christmas song comes to mind, to keep Jonathan from teasing me, then he does it anyway.
I have really pretty trees outside my window at work that are still changing colors and dropping leaves. And almost every day as I leave work I watch about a million crows head south for the winter. Jonathan and I went shopping and we each got a sweater, now I love sweaters, almost as much as the rest of all things Christmas. And I am so glad that Jonathan finally has one.
Holly likes Christmas too, I went and got her a salt lick... she was so excited she tried to take a bite out of it! Silly bunny. She calmed a bit once I gave her her dinner.
Well, thats all I have to say, I have been doing a bit of Christmas shopping, which I obviously caonnot talk about in such mixed company.
I love you all! Enjoy the Autumn beauty and (don't tell Jonathan I said this) Here comes Christmas!!
God Bless!!
The Up's and Down's, In's and Out's of daily life with a loving husband, a sweet boy, a fun-loving gal and a new life in the Philippines! God has indeed blessed us.
