So Cool!

Well it is winter in wisconsin and that means lots and lots of snow and below 0 temps. So since I no longer go outside I have more time to read my favorite blogs and in doing so I found a "free" music player. So COOL! I have added it to my blog and am currently playing some of my favorite christmas songs. I will change the playlist after the holidays, although I love christmas music year round!

It's almost Christmas!







I'm not sure how, but Christmas is almost here. There were so many things I planned on accomplishing this year, but I blinked and time flew by.
The shopping is done, the decorations are up, the cookies have been baked, eaten and baked again and yet I feel like something is missing...I'm not ready for Christmas to be here in less than a week. And by the way the something missing is not the "white" Christmas, we got 10inches of snow today to go with the 5 from last week and some before that too. Yesterday I was looking back at photos from past Christmas'. I was a little sad, every year seems to go by quicker and quicker. I still love Christmas but the joys and excitement I experieced as a child are now being passed on to my (not such a baby anymore) baby and she is already growing up too fast! I love every minute of time as it goes by, but I'm afraid I won't remember all the sweet little moments later.
We are making plans with friends this year since we are not traveling and our families are not coming up either. I guess you could say we are doing some of our own family traditions to mix in with the ones handed down from our parents and grandparents.






Here's a few pictures past and present:
