I must be getting old because all I can think is how stinking fast this month, this year, has gone by. Christmas is just a few days away. Here are some of my favorite times I shared on Instagram this December. I hope you all are enjoying this holiday season. I worked my tush off last week so I don’t have to do an shop stuff this week and I can just relax, enjoy all the various church and family things planned and hopefully read without feeling the nag of my to do list.
Like the last few Christmases we’re celebrating at my house with both my family and my in-laws, my sister is making prime rib, I’m supplying shrimp Alfredo and a veggie side (Brussels sprouts and bacon) and everyone else has been assigned other jobs. I’m really looking forward to it.
We’ve watched White Christmas, had Christmas craft day, made wontons and fresh pasta for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, all that’s left is to drive around after the Christmas Eve service at church and look at Christmas lights. Do you guys have any fun family holiday traditions?

Seriously the year flew by! I think I have whiplash from how fast Christmas came this year.
