The end of the year has been really busy! I feel like November flew by, and I’m not sure where December is going. We have some birthdays this time of year too, so things tend to get hectic! Fun, though. Hope you’re managing.

I felt your pain. I have one sons’ birthday on Dec.21th and another one on Dec.28th. Altho they are five years apart as the years went by it made little or no difference.Many years the tree didn’t get put up till the 15th or so and taken down “Please before MY birthday”.Now these boys are men so it makes for alot of great phone calls around Christmas!!

@Caroline: (Would you believe I decorated that afternoon after posting the not-decorating post? It was like a virtual kick in the butt to get up and go. Oh, funny.)

Hey! You’ve decorated your blog beautifully for the holidays! If it makes you feel any better, with so many people here for T-day and now sickness all over our house, the only “Christmasness” I’ve got going on are the tunes (I love me some Christmas music). Hoping for as few broken bulbs this year in both of our homes. Whenever we DO get around to decorating.

Awesome firefighter reviews btw!!!

And thanks for the shout out.

Who knows when we’ll get around to decorating! That said, our “very sexy” tree will be decorated with ornaments that Nate has made, and most put on the tree by him — which means that most will be bunched in a few areas.

I’m not usually anal about things, but Christmas trees? CHRISTMAS TREES? I love Christmas trees and making them look . . . well, pretty. I just know I’ll be having a silent conniption fit while I bite my tongue and tell him it looks gorgeous and then tell myself to CHILL.

Ahhhhh, Christmas. . . . . .

Our tree is up. Very slowly over the weekend, the ornaments which were concentrated at the bottom third of the tree have now migrated to the top third of the tree. Still fun. Throw it up. You might feel better!

visiting through the giveaway stuff…
holy … you packed a lot of fun into these holiday weeks, huh?
i feel the same way … it’s a lot of work and difficult with littles. but honestly, would you want them to miss out on any of it? and the big vs. little … my girls are the SAME WAY! my oldest … she would sit in one place and watch a movie, no problem. my youngest … holy granola … she is into EVERYTHING. i’m constantly running with her. there is no such thing as a movie night or coloring at the table.
but … it’s what makes them, them. and i wouldn’t change it for the world.
the tree … look at it as half full, rather than half empty. isn’t that what they say?
