my CHRISTMAS wish list
As December was approaching I started to collect ideas of how to make Christmas extra special for all of the people around me. Â Fun activities for the kids, treats for friends and family, and of course gift ideas. Â I decided to make sure I didn’t leave one very important person out of this planning…. ME! Â So I compiled a list of 25 things that are on my wish list!
1. Â Read Christmas books by the fire with M and M.
2. Â Catch up on my Christmas Scrapbook. Â (Just one year to go!)
3. Â Drink lots of homemade Hot Cocoa.
4.  Watch It’s A Wonderful Life at least once.
5. Â Snuggle with my Little M while she still fits in my lap.
6. Â Make myself a scarf out of old tees.
7. Â Listen to Big M read.
8. Â Hold my Hubby’s hand.
9. Â Write my dear friend Lacy a handwritten letter. Â (It’s way overdue.)
10. Â Gingerbread Man Hunt.Â
11. Â Wear slippers as often as possible.
12. Â Day dream about what 2012 holds for us.
13. Â Take a quick RELAXING trip with my Mom.
14. Â Watch Little M dance to Sugar Plum Fairies (wishing it wasn’t the Jingle Cats version!)
15. Â Drive around and look at lights.
16. Â Wake up before everyone, turn on the lights and enjoy the quiet.
17. Â SHOP!
18. Â Finish reading The Lion, Witch and The Wardore, then plan a fun movie night.
19. Â Listen to Alabama Christmas over and over.
20. Â Bake Christmas sugar cookies with M and M.
21. Â Finish the Christmas stockings I made 6 years ago. Â (The lining is not attached… silly me.)
22. Â Go on a date with my Hubby (kid free).
23.  Spend some quality time with my Nieces.
24. Â Get lost on Pinterest.
25. Â Remember that none of these said anything about stressing, cleaning, or overdoing!!!

I would love an evening curled up by myself, watching White Christmas under a big warm blanket and drinking a yummy hot drink.
Oh yes!!! That sounds wonderful!!!!
