Getting Ready for The Weekend


I am still trying to finish putting up decorations! I finally got the trees decorated, but still have to put out my vintage christmas village. And then there are still the lights outside the house that need to be done! And you may be thinking "doesn't she have a family that could help with some of that stuff?" Well, you are right about the family, but I have this irrational need for control and no one else is allowed to help! I clearly have issues! ;)
We go to celebrate with my family this weekend. We normally have our family get together the weekend before Christmas but this year my sister's niece is making her debut at The Grand Old Opry on that Saturday. That's kind of a big deal and she and her husband didn't want to miss it, so we had to change things up! I am not even finished with shopping for them, so I need to get moving!
After the last visit with my parents, I am not really looking forward to going. I am hoping that everyone will be too busy to start in on those "hot" topics!
Hope you have a safe weekend and get everything done that needs to be!

  2. How exciting! Hope things go well for your sister's niece!
    I'm not getting stressed over decorating this year...it's not happening unless the boys do it, which they won't!

  3. I have some similar vintage Christmas balls from my childhood. There are only three left. I started hanging them on the tree but decided that the safest place for them would be in a bowl on the dining room table.

    I'm a first time visitor to your blog and like it very much. I'm not too far away in Georgia. Fripp Island, SC is one of my favorite places to go as is all of the low country. It's a beautiful place.
