It's Beginning To Look Alot Like Christmas...





I've been really relishing the sights and sounds of the holidays this year.


First thing in the morning, I plug in the Christmas lights .




 
I listen to Christmas music whenever possible.


The presents are all wrapped and under the tree. 
Almost. 
Three more to go.





I've finally begun baking and if there are no cookies in the oven,
I light the sugar cookie candle. 
No need today, the house smells like gingerbread.






I've had myself a peppermint mocha. 
Now all I have to do is sit back and wait for Santa to come!

Hi Sares,

My daughter has just made gingerbread people so we have the same smell throughout our house.
So glad that you are all organized and ready for Christmas day.
Your photos are all so beautiful and love the one of you in the side bar.
Wishing you and yours a merry Christmas, peace, good health and contentment in 2011. It is lovely to have you as a blog friend.
