Wow. Christmas is only 20 days away! Where did all the time go? I like Christmas. It's lots of fun, there's always something to be doing, and you get to spend time with the most important people in your life, your friends and family!
This year, I have been super bombarded with a crazy December, and this also being the first Christmas season I've worked in a salon, it feels twice as busy as it really is. Salons are always so crazy around the holidays, and mine is no exception. It's awesome because it makes it so busy and exciting, but man does it make for exhausting days!
Along with being super crazy at work, everyone and their dog (or should I say puppy?) is having a christmas party, get together or cookie exchange! I love these things too, as it's always full of laughs and it's always a good time, at least with the friends I have! =)
Alex and I also have a few little things that we like to do around the holidays, like the Stanley Park Christmas train, driving around looking at lights and getting photos with Santa. It's always nice to have small holiday traditions, and I love to do ours, especially since he goes away for Christmas, so we have to make the most of the time he is here and not in Saskatchewan!
I also suck and haven't finished Christmas shopping. I think everyone has that one person that it's just like "what the hell do I get them this year?" and that person for me is my brother. I guess I'll be going out on one of my upcoming days off to try and figure something out... I promised myself I wouldn't leave shopping until the last minute this year!!
We also decorated Alex's place last weekend which really gets you into the Christmas spirit. We wont do my house until this coming weekend just because there is so much to do and we really need a whole afternoon to rearrange the house! But here are a couple pictures of Alex's trees (yes, trees... he has two!)
I hope you are all enjoying the countdown to Christmas! =)
Blog, and be happy.

I have no idea what to get for my brother either. He's impossible to shop for.
