Did anyone else get surprised by the holiday season this year? I thought we were just ending summer a couple of weeks ago, and now we're talking Thanksgiving and Christmas! Sigh... It's a lot of work... Time to shop for gifts, decorate, and bake all those treats. Time to eat, eat, eat. Time to write Christmas cards. Time to listen to Christmas songs, and sing along, making up words for those we can't remember. Time for nostalgic childrens' specials on tv.
We begin this weekend, decorating the house and breaking out the advent calendar. I'll start baking cookies soon, after I decided which ones to make. The kids helped to pick out a poinsettia this morning while we were shopping.
What are your favorite parts of the season? What cookies are you making? Will you go to Merry Tuba Christmas? Sing in a concert?
