Re: Are you ready for Christmas?
 I just need one more thing for DH. My kids things are brought and wrapped. Dinner is bought for Christmas eve and Christmas day.
 I am sooooo proud of myself because I leave everything for the last minute all the time.
 That is one of my new years resolution (we need to do a post for this)

Re: Are you ready for Christmas?
 There is just one last grocery shopping 'run' to do -- tomorrow morning (and I will be quick like a bunny cuz there's yet another snow storm barrelling towards our region and due to 'hit' here in the afternoon!   Man oh man .... when will it end??   We have had a snowstorm every other day for the past 5 days!)     
I have one large gift basket to assemble and wrap up == probably tomorrow cuz a couple of items need to stay in the 'cool' for as long as possible.    
I made some shortbread bars (lovely recipe that has skor bar crumbled pieces included!  yum yum!) on the weekend, but these were so good; they are just about all gone!   So I think I will make another batch this afternoon.    Haven't really done all that much baking since there is just my hubbie and me here at home and we really don't need to be eating all that sweet stuff (altho .... it is good! :winkb:).    DS and girlfriend are coming home for Christmas Eve (but he's not that 'big' on cute little Christmas baking treats.   He prefers more like the appetizer type of stuff!)

I do need to find cookie cutters cause I misplaced mine the last time we moved... if I can't find any the girls and I will have to wing it. :?  I am gonna finish up some wrapping today, help the girls wrap stuff for daddy while he's at work.   All my groceries are done, gonna pick up the prime rib I ordered on Wed.

 Yeap I am all done shopping, everything is wrapped, cookies are made and now the only thing left is to make the tags for the treasure hunt that I am sending Kolton on for one of his presents to add something different to this holiday since it will be just the two of us for the first time at our house.

 I will tell you my secret..... I have a Rival roasting pan to cook the turkey and prime rib in it and it does it perfectly! no fuss, hardly a mess at all and I'm not taking up the oven either so I don't have to spend all day in the kitchen with a carefully planned out cooking schedule. LOL

 I dropped off the dog at the kennel and picked up visa gift cards for the boys to have spending money, also got a little cash, packed almost everything, and now I need a drink. :winkb: I just have to make dinner tonight and somehow get the kids to sleep. They are so excited they are vibrating around the house. It's going to be a long night.

Re: Are you ready for Christmas?
 Of course not!  I haven't removed more clutter from the house so I can clean tomorrow.  I did shovel the cement around our house, though, so people don't fall and break something.  I still have to get a tree and decorate it.

I have to run to Advanced Auto after work tomorrow and get Matt a few tools, because Sears was very overpriced, had nothing on sale.  Other than that I am done and even have my groceries.  Still have not started wrapping anything though!

Re: Are you ready for Christmas?
 We had the last of 3 parties at our house last saturday, big sit down dinner with dh's side of the family 17 people. So I have been stressed to the max until that was over. My shopping, wrapping is done. Need to do some baking to take to Mom's and my house is a mess from Saturday's party, but other than that it is going ok.
