What am I trying to do this Christmas?

I am so excited for Christmas. I love, love, love Christmas. I love the sounds, the smells the lights the tastes and I always look forward to Christmas eve with my family. We don't really do much but we always enjoy each others company (well, I am speaking for myself here).

So, I got to thinking about what I wanted this Christmas to be about for me. I want to spend time with people I love. For that reason I have decided to host a Cookie Exchange, host Bonko as well as host the annual gathering of my High School girlfriends (We have had a party every year since we were in High School-that's alot of parties). I am also trying to find a Saturday that I can have my family over for a brunch.

When I stumbled across this video, I felt like I was kinda-sorta on the right track. I still love to shop for gifts and decorating my house is like drug for me, but I think, in the grand scheme of things anyway, I am on the right track.

Stay tuned for entries following all of my planned gatherings with the people I love!
