You go girl! Despite the best of intentions, we shall repeat a Christmas tradition we swear we won’t repeat every year (until we repeat it and repeat it, etc.): wrapping all gifts on Christmas Eve. Let’s hope it’s not after the kids go to bed this year!

X 8. Get James a hair cut
_ 9. Deliver invites to neighbors for New Years Day open house
x 10. Bake cookies & party mix (13 varieties are currently on my list – ha ha!) and possibly make home made marshmallows and ginger bread (for houses and trees)
X 11. Prep as many advance meals as possible (lasagne, french onion soup, etc.)
