Have you started planning and/or thinking about gift ideas for this holiday season yet? I haven’t and I totally need to. I usually have thought about it and have a general idea of the gifts I plan to mail to family and friends by this point in the year. Not this year. It hasn’t even been a blip on my radar yet.

AWESOME ideas! I pinned several. Gotta tell ya, I’m impressed that you are already in holiday mode, even if it is only to post these ideas. I can’t even reconcile my brain to the fact summer is over. This year has been such a crazy one. Time has flown. Thanks for the inspiration and the kick in the pants. 😉
Thanks, Lisa! Don’t be too impressed. I was just THINKING about it and THINKING about planning. I still need to DO the planning! Yes this year has totally flown by! I don’t even want to know how many days until Christmas…that will send my blood pressure soaring! Glad the post inspired you. 🙂
Funny that I just got your reply to my comment. In the few days since I posted my original one, things have greatly changed at my house. This weekend, my mom and I decorated 2 trees for Christmas as well as completed the holiday mantel decorations. And this is coming from the girl who is usually putting the last ornament or two on somewhere around December 23rd. BUT…I get a lot of twinkle light viewing time because I’ve been known to leave my tree up until Valentine’s Day. Two years ago, it was still up in April. What can I say? Life gets busy and other things take priority. haha!
Good luck with your planning. You do such an amazing job with all the holidays, I’m sure Christmas will be fabulous!!!
Wow! You are already ready for Christmas! Impressive. I just bought a new tree today, so in theory I could get it decorated. It won’t happen until after Thanksgiving. Maybe because you put the tree up so early this year, you will be ready to take it down before Valentine’s Day. 😉
