It's Christmas!

Tonight my mom comes in town and it's a non-stop 2 weeks while she's here.

What's on the agenda?

An Ultimate Christmas Party - ASL, decked-out house, an hour drive.
Family Christmas Party - at my non-decked-out house.
Krohn's Conservatory - poinsettias for everyone!
11 Year Anniversary Celebration - themed hotel room, cheesecake, and Martinellis.  Check!
Christmas Eve and Day - including Rob singing at church.  A Christmas must!
Family Christmas Party - 3 1/2 hour drive, almost all the Thacker siblings, lots of laughs.
Meet the Parents Party - My new friends in the Deaf community come to meet my mom and dad.  At my non-decked-out house.
Dinner with Friends We Don't See Often Enough - unless they turn us down.  And then I'll cry and feel sorry for myself.

What's not on the agenda?

Wrapping presents - I'm all done!
Stressing out - We're adults now.  We'll have none of that.
Lazing about in PJs on Christmas Day - what's up with going to church on Christmas Day?  It's about presents!  Presents! 
Sending out Christmas Cards - We don't have any Brag pictures this year.  No follow-up to "Check us out on the beach at Key West" photos.  Too disappointing to think about.

Hope you all have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!  I'm signing off until 2012.  (Well, maybe I'll post some pictures.  Maybe.)

Sounds like lots o' fun things planned! And wow, I'm impressed that you 1. already have your presents wrapped (haven't even started here) and 2. are not stressing. i just thought that was part of every Christmas season. :)
