Christmas Dreaming

I am excited for traditions.

Christmas and traditions just go hand in hand.
The polar express, driving looking at Christmas lights, baking, train sets, yes. Sooo excited. =]
Every Christmas eve my sister's and I would have a sleepover in one of our rooms. I would load up on books and things to keep me busy when I would wake up at 6 am till about 8 when we could go downstairs.
My dad would always read Polar Express with me.
We would always drive around looking at Christmas lights on Christmas Eve.
We never were allowed to open a gift early.
My favorite cookies were made a lot, Starlight Sugar Crisps. =]
Christmas cards would fill our mantel.
Along with all the other goods things like the Christmas tree, music, good smells, etc.

Joe and I decided we want to cook either a duck or goose for Christmas. It just sounds like a very festive christmas. =]

Not this year... maybe next, or the year after when it gets harder to go home.
(3 weeks till CALIFORNIA!!! =] )

Joe really wants us to do Christmas cards, and I really want to make us stockings and decorate, but the money thing has come a problem. But, Shutterfly is doing something really cool for bloggers, 50 free cards! we will see how it goes.
Go here to check it out!


Also...I am now possible more in love with Garlic after going it Iowa, and I now really want to go to the Gilroy Garlic festival!
