It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

It's getting fun now. We're shopping, cooking, making lists and preparing for next week.

The garage smells like Christmas because our freshly cut tree is in there relaxing in a pail of water. Within a day or two, it will be dressed for the season.

The wrapping and mailing of Christmas presents to my sisters household is done and on the way.

On Sunday, we are going to a Christmas Concert at St. Dunstan's church and we'll have Jessie and Emmie with us. Then we're all going to see Caitlin's syncro swimming exhibition. If that doesn't put us right in the Christmas spirit, I don't know what will.

Jess and Em are staying for a few days and I have a very busy agenda planned for them for Monday and Tuesday. I hope they're resting up. Watch for daily blogs about our activities. Then Baby Aurora is coming on Wednesday. It'll be fun this year with her because she already knows it's a fun time of year. Just wait until she realizes that Santa will be bringing her presents on Christmas Morning.
