"...help me celebrate it!"
So Im feeling all Christmasy (if thats a word) and so very much in the spirit. And it just strengthens these feelings whenever I see/hear this song by Aly and AJ. I just want to JAM out christmas style. This is where I got my blog title from, I keep saying it over and over! lol I am so into the rock/alternative christmas songs right now. : ) Listen/watch and let it move you.
We got our Christmas tree FINALLY after a week and a half of planning on it. I was SO excited and Aly had so much fun going with us. She was such a good girl. : ) Nicholas did all of the work while I took pictures, lol. I told him I didnt want to be the kind of wife that just sits and watches and expects the man to do all of the hard work. Ive seen that too often and it bugs that crap out of me. Well instead I take pictures! LMAO! I know its sad, but there really wasnt anything I could do to help but clean up the mess. It was a one person job, just like it was when the tree-man put the tree in our trunk. teehee but I got some good documentation for our journal!
Isnt that tree just PERFECT. And about $35 dollars cheaper for a small fee of driving out of the "nice" city we live in and going to the "not as nice" city in which we used to live. Only about 7 miles away, its funny how small things like that are taken into consideration. Good thing we are too smart for them! lol So HA! I love our tree, its sitting right next to me and I keep wafting in the wonderful christmas aroma. We also got a wreath out of the trimmings from the bottom! Cant wait to decorate it and make our wreath!
So I have been taking in the commercials and I wanted to share my FAVORITE this year. Gosh I love Target.
And this one PISSES me off. SO much. Its just so sad. This should not be something we want to highlight about Christmas these days. It just makes me so sad. I wish they could spend their time more constructively by passing on or coming up with more ideas on how to spread the holiday cheer. I am all out and wish there were more sources....so anyway, here's the one that is just saddening. Pushed Target farther up the pedestal for me...
Poor Grandma. : ( I so feel her pain. I think this is something I will add to my Christmas journal. This sort of stuff should be immortalized to show either how far we have grown (hopefully) or how bad its gotten, well in the future since now.
Speaking of my Christmas Journal, here are some sneakies of what Ive done so far, the rest are in the album to the right.
I am SO enjoying this process, the only thing I am having trouble with is adding photos to it. I would really love to have more photos in the book. Anyway, if you havent signed up yet its not too late! Its SO very worth it!
Well Im off to edit some layout photos, then decorate the christmas tree! Mmmm, love me some hot Shnacolate!
