Christmas Time

So it's definitely Christmas time. (yes I'm one of those people who tries to steer clear of christmasy things until after thanksgiving)
Signs:
We put up Christmas decorations at work. Our tree is mostly up and about 3/4 of the lights work (a true Christmas miracle). We have been making snowflakes during boring times. We have little bulbs dangling from the cabinets. Good times.

I'm listening to Christmas music! Yay!

David and i have been trying to be diligent with the advent calendar. (we've only eaten 2 days late so far :)

I've started receiving gifts. One of the professors i work with gave the full time secretaries each a poinsettia, so sweet.

I've gone to the work Christmas luncheon. Good times. Me and my co-worker were just about the only ones our age, there were a couple other people in their 20's and other than that i think everyone had us beat by 20+ years :) Great people, good food, a nice break from the desk :)

It kind of snowed a few flakes this morning. I am one of those weird people that like the snow. I love it! I hate the cold and the way i see it, the snow is the only thing that makes enduring the cold worth it. I wish it would snow more, like it used to when i was a little kid. Good times. Hopefully the snow will pick up soon but won't be on the roads when we drive back to Denver for Christmas :)

So yes, Christmas time is here. I hope it will be a happy one for everyone! A great time to remember and cherish the things and people that are most important to us. Merry Christmas!

PS. 19 days until my birthday :)
