I loved it when my dad would bring out 'one of his many musical instruements that he can play' and we would all get together and sing christmas carols... I should hopefully be done all of my christmas shopping within the next two weeks (I started early this year as I didn't want to be out in the cold weather doing all of that with a new little one to take along with me)Laneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16576569819570282950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27247506.post-1161572113566843152006-10-22T19:55:00.000-07:002006-10-22T19:55:00.000-07:00Well this christmas I too am making some gifts...a...Well this christmas I too am making some gifts...as you already saw one of my purchases, I have knots in my back already from cutting fabric for two days now!<BR/><BR/>We are still trying to come up with our own christmas traditions out here...we've had two christmas' where its just been the four of us...last year was alot better than the year before...but this year, we are so thankful that we get to go home and celebrate the season with our family and friends back in Alberta and Saskatchewan!!! There's alot more tradition when its all of us together. I suppose someday we'll just have to start making our own for just the four of us. <BR/><BR/>Anyways, I'm glad you're thinking about christmas too. I'm holding off until November to start listening to christmas music...although its hard not to when you're kids are already watching christmas movies!!!<BR/><BR/>Take care...hope you found the fabric that you were looking for!Tanyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09726835803772316447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27247506.post-1161570233470708352006-10-22T19:23:00.000-07:002006-10-22T19:23:00.000-07:00Thanks Jenny!I can't wait, it's just so nice when ...Thanks Jenny!<BR/>I can't wait, it's just so nice when you actually have all of your family together.

I just threw away a bagful of jeans that had holes in them, and I'm sure we have more clothes.<BR/>I'll also look for crayons...we have many...<BR/>My favourite song is "Hark the Herald Angels Sing" it makes me cry everytime I hear it.<BR/>Last year we got a wonderful book called, "the story of Christmas" (I think I'll have to check again?OOPS) by Usborne books. We sat around after we decorated the tree with our egg nog in fancy little liqueur goblets and we read the story of Christmas to the boys. It was beautiful and a very cherished moment for our family.<BR/>We will do the same this year.<BR/>Also I had some of my closest friends(Shari, Pen, Tanya) come over for some dinner one night and then we went around and saw the lights and drove through the Pentacostal Christmas presentation. It was fun and I hope we can do it again.<BR/>I'm excited for Christmas and it's never to early to prepare...I've already purchased a couple of gifts and stocked them away in my toy shop.Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02616883470250983923noreply@blogger.com
