Christmas is a week away!

Well, Christmas Eve is officially a week away.  I'm getting super excited!  We have all our Christmas shopping done which is amazing because we are always scrambling at the last minute to get it done.  We just have to wrap them all up this week.  Other then decorating a bit more, we are all set to go!

 

How are you all doing with your holiday preparations?

Re: Christmas is a week away!

  • OMG, I'm freaking out. My shopping is almost all done, but nothing is wrapped and almost nothing is decorated. We only just put our tree up last night! The biggest thing I need to do other than the wrapping is to clean up the apartment and get it looking nice for the Christmas dinner we're having on the 29th.

  • Definitely not done Christmas shopping yet!!!  We have put up as many decorations and we had.  H promised me after Christmas we can buy more decorations that are on sale to decorate our new home!!! 
  • We are almost ready for Christmas.   We just have a few last minute shopping things to get and then we are done.  I have about half of our presents wrapped and under the tree.  Next up is cake balls for our office Christmas party.  I am going to try to make Christmas tree cake pops.  Hopefully they come out good.  lol

  • All we have left to get is a pair of Steelers pjs for our nephew.  We've found some lounge pants, but have been looking for actual pjs.  I ordered a pajama set from Kohl's but then they canceled it because they were out of stock! Sad  Doesn't Kohl's know how much I shop there?!?  lol

    We also still have all of our gift wrapping to do.  I also have some Christmas cookies to ice later in the week.

  • We're not done shopping yet! We have the majority of the food we need for the dinner we're hosting, but the house is nowhere near ready to have so many people over. The decorating is done, but we need to clean it from top to bottom and move boxes out of the way.

  • I'm almost done shopping, and I plan to wrap presents Thursday.  We are having Christmas with my parents Saturday and leave for NC Sunday.  I didn't decorate since we were gone for Thanksgiving and Christmas.  Next year I will get an artifical tree so I can keep it up while we are in NC...

  • We are all ready for Christmas here!  Last weekend we put up our small table-top tree and decorated.

    I did all the wrapping that I could and as the week has gone on, I have wrapped all of my gifts, except my father's, which is being delivered Thursday.

    MIL called last night to ask if I can make buffalo chicken spring rolls for Christmas Eve.  I told her if she wanted, I would do it and I heard one SIL say in the background, "Good, I really wanted them."  It made me feel good to know SILs actually like my cooking since they are so critical of everything that anyone but them does.  I'll get all the supplies this weekend and make them Monday while H is at work.

     

  • Ahhh! I was freaking out as of yesterday, but then I got all of my shopping done! I am working 10-11 hour days the rest of the week, so I basically HAD to get it all done yesterday. Now I'm just excited to CELEBRATE the holidays!
