Hi Everyone...<br />
<br />
We also put up our tree today.  It looks so nice. I think it is my favorite part of the holiday. I decorated around the house a bit- nothing elaborate this year and I did not do any window lights like I usually do. Trying to keep it simple this year.<br />
<br />
We shopped onSaturday and made a good dent. I set up the &quot;wrapping station&quot; and brought all the gifts down to the dining room where they will stay till they are wrapped. Hope to get to it this week.<br />
<br />
Maybe next weekend I will make a few cookies. The time is moving so fast now.... somehow the season snuck up on us this year.<br />
<br />
We celebrate Hanukah with the girls next weekend.  Can&#39;t wait for the potato lackies (sp?).  <br />
<br />
Have a good week everyone.<br />
<br />
Gail
