Can you believe.....

There are only 109 days until Christmas?!?!?!? Yes, I know i'm a little insane, but I am actually looking forward to the holiday season this year!! I honestly don't know why, as I usually stress about what to get the boys and how we can get them things without going broke!!! But this year just feels so.......different, for a lack of a better word. Z has a new job that is so much better for him, not only financially, but for his own sanity!!! We started up a little savings for the boys Christmas, and I would LOVE to be able to actually send friends and family a little something this year! Plus, we already have a few things put away for the boys, and I ordered Chase's Christmas ornament today! (we try and get the boys new ornaments every year, mainly of things they are really into) I think what mostly got me in the holiday mood was when I found the star that we are going to use on top of our tree this year. (our angel died on us last year....so sad :() When I found the star I called Chase over to where I was, and I plugged it in so he could see all the colors.....the look on his face was just priceless!!! He got a huge smile on his face and was so excited!!! I wanted to put our tree up right then and there! But, then I went through the pics of last years Christmas and our "leaning tree" and that brought me right back down to reality. But still, i'm really looking forward to the baking and shopping, and of course the decorating!!!
