It was
Levi's Birthday, then
Fall Day, the we decided to
move, then Halloween
snuck up on me, and now my sister in law is inviting me to pin to her
Thanksgiving board for our celebration next weekend.
What the heck? I was still looking for a spot in my calendar to squeeze in one more visit to the public pool and bam, Target is in full-fledged Christmas mode and Levi is telling me, "I want a Christmas Tree."
I say bring it on. In fact, I told Herb since we're unpacking anyway, let's just throw up the tree while we're at it. He said no.
Last weekend my bro suggested a field trip to a local beautiful spot to take Christmas card photos (can't share them yet). At least someone is on the ball. So now I'm perusing
Christmas Cards and feeling somewhat ahead of the curve ball for once.
In fact, if you've started down that rabbit trail too, and haven't decided on a certain card - I have a giveaway!!

 |
| Love the vintage look of this one!! |
 |
| Could this little girl be any cuter? Black and white with bright accents, I think yes. |
 |
| It's A Wonderful Life is Herb's favorite movie - so this would be fun. |
 |
| This one says it all. |
 |
| Aqua, red, and retro - my greatest weakness. |

ReplyDeleteThank you, Michelle, for your blog!
ReplyDelete"I wonder as I wander out under the sky
How Jesus the Savior did come for to die
For poor on'ry people like you and like I
I wonder as I wander out under the sky."
I like them all (Shutterfly is terrible for my indecisiveness!), but I'd pick the one that says "Blessed" because I like to hang the cards on the fridge all year, and while it has a great Christmas feel, it isn't overtly so. Michelle, you rock!
ReplyDeleteFall on your knees! Oh, hear the angel voices!
ReplyDeleteOh night divine, the night Christ was born.
That line gets me every time.
I love the second one!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite line?

ReplyDeleteSilent night. Holy night.
ReplyDeleteAll is calm. All is bright.
Not actually my favorite, but ... I spent hours upon hours singing that song to She-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named, when she wouldn't stop fussing in the middle of the night!
After giving this question much thought, my favorite Christmas lyric is definitely "I still want a hula- hoop" from the Chipmunk's Christmas song :)
