"What If" Friday

This week I have so many "What If's" so I this that's all I am going to post about today.  Things have just been so busy this month.  I love the Holidays, the decorating, the Christmas music, and all the food that seems to be every where you look.  As Christmas gets closer everything seems to be going in fast froward.   The cookies that I love to make I am making in a rush between one party to the next.  I love Christmas but I don't like all the rush.  I think next year I want to get a early start on things so that when the time comes I won't be in a rush and am actually able to enjoy the time I have to spend with my family and friends, which led me to these...

*What If I did get started on my Christmas shopping early and had the goal to be done the day after Thanksgiving since you know you have to go shopping on Black Friday?

I think it would be so nice to sit and look at our tree with all the presents wrapped and under the tree before the rush ever started.

*What If we did try to cram so many parties with family all in one day?

For some reason this year has been weird. I have always thought we had to do everything with everyone Christmas day so we always run around like mad people trying to see every family member so no one gets their feeling hurt. Anyone know the feeling?  I have realized this year though we get to see everyone all in one day we really don't actually get to see them because we are so worried about getting to the next place.  I think I would love to spread it out over three days so that we can actually sit down and celebrate this time of year with each other and enjoy the time we have together.  We might try it this year and see how it goes.   How does everyone else split the time with their families that live close to each other?

*What if these really were our Christmas outfits?



Lets just say one day they were someones and it's fun to bring them back just one more time and get some good laughs.  To bad Dustin really likes his that one of the guys there gave to him and claims he's wearing it on Christmas. :)
