Christmas is less than a month away!
Who's started shopping? Do you personally have a wish list?
I have already wrapped all the gifts that I have purchased. Ron bought the tree today at Lowes. A Frasier Fir. I will decorate it this weekend. I decorated the mantle today.

I have a few things bought, but we're going to do the rest of our shopping online this year. At least that's Hubby's plan. I still don't have the decorations out yet, but I should have that done by the end of the weekend. I'm working on the list of things for Peppermint the Elf to do. She doesn't make her first appearance in our house until Dec. 1st.

rockfordfosgate, Peppermint sounds like your version of an advent calendar. Anyone do advent calendars?

I am all done with holiday shopping minus one gift card. I'm so happy to be done!
I don't do advent calendars, but I bought a Star Wars themed one and send it to my 10 year old cousin. He loved it so much he sent a picture with it (well, his mother texted it.) It looked pretty cool.

I'm so behind with shopping this year. I've only bought a few things so far.

I am ahead of schedule, probably the first time in my whole life! I have not done any wrapping though.

My word, you folks are organized! I start Christmas when Thanksgiving leftovers are gone. One more serving of cranberry chutney and I am there.

I am hoping to do the rest of my shopping at Kohls. I love their return policy and I think they have a good selection of all different things.

I made the mistake of going into Kohl's on Friday around 1pm. Bad, bad, bad idea! It was insanely crowded. I'll have to try again during the week on an off-day.

Today is trim-a-tree day for me. I'd better get moving. I'll post pictures at some point.

Okay, all done and got the seal of approval from Ron. Here are pictures of the tree and mantle. The tree has 400 lights and probably 400 ornaments (I didn't count but it's a lot).
