Happy Holiday Chaos

Here it is December 6th and I still don't have my tree up yet! I have worked on getting the church decorated and it looks nice with alot of help from a friend! That is such a relief!

Tomorrow! I WILL get it done tomorrow! I am buying all new decorations this year. I saw this really pretty tree at the Christmas store that is decorated in lime (?) green and a deep red color with gold! It was beautiful ...so guess what my new colors are gonna be?? You guessed it! I am so excited. I looked at Hobby Lobby today to try to find some things in those colors but I couldn't find anything so it looks like I am gonna have to buy the stuff at the Christmas Store. Expensive, but I do have a gift certificate that I got for my birthday that will help $100 worth! Hopefully, I can get this all done tomorrow! Yea, for days off!

This month is insanely busy. Parties, parties, parties. Children's workers party, Pastor/Board party, staff party, WM's party...... We even decided to have an all church progressive dinner this year. Whose bright idea was this anyway?? I thought maybe we would have 30-45 people attend but we already have 85 people and still growing! OMG! Finding homes for this many people and arranging groups and food and everything else is out of control. We will need at least 8 homes and go in groups of 20. Wow! I hope I can get this together! Should be loads of fun and we will all end up back at the church for desserts and gift exchange. Fun times ahead!

Oh yeah and on top of everything else we have a wedding tomorrow night. Had rehearsal this evening.

Everything is hectic and happy with a little holiday stress thrown in! I love Christmas!

Hope every one out there is having a great time planning your holiday! Be blessed and ever thankful for His gift! It's the greatest of all!
