Jingle Bell Poop

Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle all the....yea yea Ok.
It's Christmas time now and the hub bub of the season is upon us.
I love the holidays but Christmas is THE  holiday on steroids.

You just can't break away from all the fa la la'ing and feeling of general expectations of pure joy.
It personally can make me feel like I'm drowning.
Anyone else feeling that way right now? I obviously need more Vitamin D...again.
Not to sound like the grinch or anything...

I bet you are regretting reading my depressing blogpost now huh ~ it gets better, you'll see =)

All joking aside, it is a difficult holiday for many people especially those who are in the wait to adopt.
I had put together ideas about how I was going to do our family photo Christmas cards with our new addition. I must just be a glutton for punishment.
*palm smack on forehead*
Why must I torture myself?
 
So...I'm rebelling (and saving like $50 in postage) and not doing cards this year.
I'm acting out...because, well...Hmm. Anyways~

However, because I am not a fan of routine...
and in an attempt to get out of my yucky holiday funk...
we bought our first real Christmas tree this year!

N helped us pick out the perfect one
and helped us decorate it all purdy and perfect
 

 
And Yes..I do heart it...genuinely. =)
This is what true Christmas memories are made of.
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from our family to Yours!
