I am a little obsessed with Christmas. I would happily skip every single other holiday if it meant Christmas could last longer. I was one of those children that seriously mourned Santa Claus. It felt like all the magic was gone! So, like everything else that goes wrong in my life, I dealt with it like an adult in a constructive, healthy way - by playing Christmas music and movies non-stop from mid-October to New Years .. and shopping, a lot. I have dragged my poor husband to TJMaxx, Target and Home Goods at least a dozen times over the last month, rarely leaving empty-handed. It will look like Christmas VOMITED all over my house when it's all said and done, and y'all, I can't wait. Literally, my decorations may be up before Thanksgiving. Go ahead, you can cringe. This year my obsession has been particularly intense because the whole family is coming to my house for breakfast on Christmas morning. My sister will have my new baby niece in tow (family-wide matching pj's have already been discussed). Next year, my parents will probably be in their new house and we will go back to doing festivities at their house. So, I have decided to plan a very fancy and official Christmas morning breakfast. We will finally knock the dust off of Lauren's china, I have Pinterest plans for a beautiful centerpiece, there will be a fire going and the smell of pine in the air, and everyone will have a grand time, damnit! I figured I spent enough money on Christmas decorations over the past few weeks, that I might cut my husband some slack and come up with some affordable decorations. These babies are so easy to download and pop into your existing frames around the house. Spread the Christmas cheer for all to hear (or see)!
