Holiday Craze!!!!

Anyone else out there feeling the hustle and bustle yet of this holiday season? I am trying my best to make it through without losing my mind. Both me and my husband are from divorced families, so we have like 800 Christmases to attend (it seems I might be exaggerating a tad bit). :)
Anyway, we are having Christmas at Alan's sisters house this Saturday! SO, let the parties begin!! I am making Christmas cut out cookies with edible paint icing. (Thanks, Paula Deen!) I think my nephews will get a kick out of the decorated cookies.

Still have to finish wrapping my presents. I DO NOT USE BAGS! That is one of my pet peeves. I wrap everything with wrapping paper and I don't use those dollar store bows either. I wrap with ribbon and every present has to be perfect. I just want the giftee to know that I took extra care with their gift and that a lot of love went into making it look beautiful!

I have an appointment tomorrow with Toni and Guy hair salon to get my hair colored. Stupid gray hair. Yes, I admit. I have gray hair! Can't go to a holiday party exposing the roots now can we?

On another note, I sure hope the abc television network airs "A Charlie Brown Christmas" Again since Obama pre-empted it last week. I love that Christmas special. Incidentally, I also love Christmas Vacation, A Christmas Story, and that Brady Bunch episode when Mrs. Brady gets her voice back just in time for Christmas!

Fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

By the way... I meant to have mom tell you not to buy us gifts this year. I hope I'm not too late. Not sure if you heard, but Josh got laid off of his job and we are really scraping to get by. So we can't buy presents for anyone this year. (Which makes me cry.) So please don't worry about getting us anything.

My fave Christmas shows are Elf, Christmas Story, Christmas Vacation, and Charlie Brown Christmas. I have very fond memories of both the Brady Bunch where Mrs. Brady gets her voice back on Christmas morning and the Brady Family Christmas when they are all adults. :)
