Christmas is around the corner.. let the craziness begin!

In exactly 10 days, Christmas will finally be knocking on our doors.. 10 days!?! I still can't believe it! Our first holiday party of the year kicked off the Christmas spirit train and there doesn't seem to be an end in sight! The house is decked to the nines and Rufus is finally getting used to having a real tree in the house.. it came close a few times, but he seems to be getting the logic behind having the tree indoors. (At least we think he gets it.. oh well!)

Christmas is usually an insane time of year for the better half and I. We spend %98 of the holidays running around with our heads chopped off and skipping from one family gathering to another.. we hardly get a chance to set our feet up.. it's exhausting. Since we have 3 families to deal with (a visit to my mom's for Xmas eve, my dad and in laws Christmas day) and if you add our extended families to the mix (a visit on the 19th and 26th respectively) it's really hard to find a second to tone down the crazy.

I thank my lucky stars, we have a bit of a break this year.. (more on that later)

Also, this coming year marks a huge milestone.. (well not huge but still, pretty crazy) it'll be the beginning of a new decade.. a Decade!! Now that's something to celebrate! We are really looking forward to a little New Years celebration in NYC with our dearest friends.. but don't worry. We aren't planning on waiting hours in line, like a bunch of cattle, in the freezing cold for a ball to drop in Times Square.

Any suggestions?
