25 Days Till Christmas....

Melissa McKinney Christmas Tree

I still get all jumpy inside about this time of year! I am worse than the children at times... On Christmas day that starts our family lazy week. From then till New Years we take time off to play game stay up late, sleep in and eat too much. I get SO excited at the thought of it!!!

Another thing that I look forward to is the 25 Days of Christmas on ABC Family channel! An endless selection of Christmas movies to watch, taking us right into Christmas! I hope you all spend some time cuddled on the couch with a loved one taking in a GREAT Christmas movie!!

It really is too bad that we cant have Christmas all year long....

Melissa, it may be 25 days to Christman, but it's only one to Chanuka. My crazy week starts tomorrow night, ready or not!

Is that your tree? How beautiful. I remember we used to use that white tree with the revolving color tray at the bottom and when it was on blue the whole tree turned feflected blue, and likewise for the red, the yellow and the green. Then we moved up to the real pine trees when we were older. Oh the memories of Christmas. How wonderful.

thanks for posting

That is too funny, Melissa! My kids were just asking me if we would cuddle up on the couch again, to watch ABC Family 25 Days.... it was nice to hear. Especially that my kids are now both "tweens". : )

Hey Melissa. We're not far away. If you ever in Pinehurst, give a shout and we can have lunch or something. Your tree looks so pretty. I like the lights around your photo, too.
