Christmas, Music, Craziness!



Christmas, Music, and Craziness! That sums up my last couple of weeks! 


Christmas is just one week away! Well, alright, a week and a DAY away... But still, it's almost here! It feels like time is just FLYING by! Just a couple of weeks ago, it was the 4th of July... Wasn't it???


We've been busy putting together gift packs for family and friends, and delivering them! (or Playing Santa as I prefer to think of it) ;)


Music is for all the Christmas carols that are being sung at our house! Me and my siblings will randomly break into song, at the slightest mention of a word in a song. For example: "It's supposed to Snow sometime next week" Which means we break out into something along the lines of: Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow!!!

OR:
(Snow still being the keyword here)



"Outside the snow is falling
and friends are calling “Yoo hoo,”
Come on, it’s lovely weather
for a sleigh ride together with you."


Yep, we love Christmas time! 


And it finally feels like Christmas time (and just in time too!), because it FINALLY SNOWED!!!!! 

"I'mmmm dreaminnnggg of a White Christmas!" ;)


I don't know about you, but I have some Christmas gifts that need some wrapping love... 


So, off I go!

Merry Christmas one and all!

"Just hear those sleigh bells jingling,

ring ting tingling too

Come on, it’s lovely weather

for a sleigh ride together with you,

Outside the snow is falling

and friends are calling “Yoo hoo,”

Come on, it’s lovely weather

for a sleigh ride together with you.

Giddy yap, giddy yap, giddy yap,

let’s go, Let’s look at the show,

We’re riding in a wonderland of snow.

Giddy yap, giddy yap, giddy yap,

it’s grand, Just holding your hand,

We’re gliding along with a song

of a wintry fairy land.


Our cheeks are nice and rosy

and comfy cozy are we

We’re snuggled up together

like two birds of a feather would be

Let’s take that road before us

and sing a chorus or two

Come on, it’s lovely weather

for a sleigh ride together with you.

There’s a birthday party


at the home of Farmer Gray

It’ll be the perfect ending a perfect day


We’ll be singing the songs


we love to sing without a single stop,


At the fireplace while we watch


the chestnuts pop. Pop! pop! pop!


There’s a happy feeling


nothing in the world can buy,


When they pass around the chocolate


and the pumpkin pie


It’ll nearly be like a picture print


by Currier and Ives


These wonderful things are the things


we remember all through our lives!


of a wintry fairy land

Our cheeks are nice and rosy


and comfy cozy are we


We’re snuggled up together


like two birds of a feather would be


Let’s take that road before us


and sing a chorus or two


Come on, it’s lovely weather


for a sleigh ride together with you."

Fall time in no time!

I can't believe fall is just around the corner! Nooo! Not yet! I'm still in summer(ish) mode! You know, swimming, shorts, tank tops... SUMMER! But, once school starts (in 2 days), it will be officially (by school terms that is) done... So I'm trying very hard to cope with Fall being (almost) here already!
I'm ok with being able to open windows, take pictures of the BEAUTIFUL scenery, the crisp (fresh!) air, the holidays, the Apple and Pumpkin picking (YUM!), SOME of the baking ;) , Bonfires, and SMORES!!! =D Among other things.   ;)
 
 
 
I'm not sure I'm ready for everything else that comes with fall though. The raking of leaves, the coming of winter, the bare trees (bare trees are just kinda depressing...), no more swimming, school, having to stay inside more (because it's much chillier) etc.
 
Just like every other season (but maybe winter), I'm a bit unwilling to let go of this season, and enter the next one. But when the next season gets here, I'm almost always glad... =)

It will take tears and time...

Sometimes life just doesn't go as planned. Things happen, people move in and out of your life, some things end, and some begin. Some things just continue on.
 
Well, today has been one of those days where NOTHING seems to be going right in my life. It feels like everything is pressing down on me. School starting, Aunt moving furthur away, buissness is not going as I hoped, having major allergies (ragweed), missing camp, not looking forward to youth group starting, and all around feeling like breaking down and crying, and Dreary weather is not helping much...
 
It will take tears and time till I'm ok again, but I'll be ok eventually...
 
Sometimes finding the positive in things is VERY difficult, that's for sure.
