I was reading over some holiday events in our area when I stumbled across a little fact I've never heard before.  Did you know that Christmas was first declared a legal holiday in 1836 by the state of Alabama?  Can you guess which state was the last to declare? 

I finally started my Christmas shopping today.  After coming back from Thanksgiving in Florida the entire family got sick for a week and have rarely left the house.  Today I made a trip to the store and got most of the shopping done for our 3 boys.  They are getting very excited and have been asking daddy when he's going to get us a tree with lights and candy canes on it.  Walmart was a mad house.  It's that time of the year! 

Happy Holidays Everyone!

OK, so you left me hanging...which state was last?  I know how you feel; my oldest had the flu last week!  I have three kids (2 girls and a boy) to shop for and have not even started!  I am going to try to take a half day tomorrow afternoon and I am anticipating madness as well.  Good luck with yours!
