All I want for Christmas

Merry Christmas!!  The count-down is officially here and I (surprisingly) am excited, relaxed, and ready!!  We are spending Christmas and News Years at home and I can't wait to introduce Elayna to a wonderful first holiday.  Our presents are bought (we went minimal this year), the decorations are as good as they're going to get, and our wealth of yummy food is in the fridge. 

We took Elayna to meet Santa tonight and had such a fun time!  However, I was very wrong about Sunday evenings being a good time -- Santa was really popular tonight and we had to wait over an hour to see him.  Surprisingly, we didn't mind; Kierland was beautifully decorated, and the outdoor mall had a lot to see and do while we waiting.  Even the crowd was in a good mood.

Aaron and I are both working all-day Monday and Tuesday morning this week.  Since we're paying for a full week of daycare, we're planning a 'date' on Wednesday.  While it seems a little crazy, I'm very excited to take my husband to lunch and a movie ... it feels like a special day indeed!  We are really looking forward to it -- and might plan a similar day for next week too!

4 days to go ... Merry Christmas!
