I'm Finally In The Mood....

....for Christmas that is. I put it off as long as I can and now I can't hold back any more. I am finally getting excited that Santa's on his way soon. The leaves have all fallen and the air is getting cooler so now it is starting to feel close. Do you know what I mean? I am really trying hard to not stress this year. We are going to spend as much time together as a family as possible and maybe start a few new traditions this year. I really love to bake and I want to have my sisters and my mom over for a day of cookie baking. We did that a few years ago and I really think that we need to have a girls day of baking again. Wine included. If anyone has any good cookie recipes to share, I would love it! Ho,ho,ho, and jingle,jingle, and all that stuff:)

  3. Yes! Your post got me excited too! I love starting new traditions and keeping old ones and your baking day sounds like fun! I usually do a couple days of baking on my own and I also host a cookie exchange, it's turned out to be a lot of fun-this will be my 3rd year of doing it.
