Not ready for Christmas

B and I had just another one of the many Christmas parties we had to attend last night. Bopsie and Popsie spent the night with the kids. Now that we are past all the "must attend" things, I am realizing how seriously behind we are in our Christmas preparations.

With 5 days left here is what needs to be done:

  • Menu for Christmas needs to be decided on and purchased
  • Cookies need to be made
  • The package going to the ILs in Illinois is still in the back of my car
  • I have actually gotten the Christmas cards ordered... too bad it was just a day ago and I don't even thing they have been shipped to me.
  • Wrap every last present we have
  • Oh and this little thing of going to see Santa
Yeah, I am totally on top of things this year. Good thing the kids are still only on the cusp on knowing what the heck this is all about.

Oh and add another thing to the list.... find a freaking CHURCH. I want my kids to know the REAL meaning behind this holiday.

I can't do much to help by way of wrapping presents, shipping presents or taking the boys to see Santa, but I'm sure I could find a church in your neighborhood! Let me know if you'd like any help with that. HA! =)

I took A to see Santa Sat. and waited an hour. She wanted nothing to do with him and wouldn't even sit on his lap.

I haven't even bought wrapping paper or cards yet.
