Christmas Activities
Over the last few weeks I've been in full Christmas mode!! Attending Christmas parties!
Supporting friends at Christmas programs!
Touring Christmas Townes!!
Christmas caroling at malls!
Even busted out a few meals myself!!
Even managing to get up two Christmas trees this year, finishing my shopping early and wrapping the gifts.
I was determined this year to enjoy the season, not stress out and get in as much time with family as possible!! Somehow I've managed to do all of that and more! My secret??? Nothing big or earth shattering. I started decorating a bit early. We limited gifts to one per child with a few stocking stuffers, I took time out to spend with family even if it meant leaving a house that wasn't spotless and I made family time and time with friends a top priority. As we go in to a new year I'm constantly reminded just how short life is. How important it is to embrace the good times and not let the bad times steal my joy!! I've declared 2016 a year of new beginnings. I have lots to look forward to including one daughters graduation with her masters degree, one daughters wedding and so many more first to numerous to list. And I'm determined to take it all in and enjoy every moment!! What will you do in 2016 to make life just a little bit sweeter?? It's really in your hands. We can't always change our circumstances but we can most definitely change our attitudes!!
