We I temporarily interrupt the greatness that is the garage progress with something a little more domestic – Christmas time!!
It all started because i was a good wife and picked up some drop clothes at the dollar store.
Then I got to looking at the Christmas stuff.
Then I went to a few more stores and I came home with:
1. One white 4′ pre-lit Christmas tree
2. One 6′ slim Christmas tree
3. 36 shatterproof balls in pink, silver, and red.
4. 48 shatterproof balls in blue and silver.
5. 3 large silver bows for big gifts (like a car!!) (SUPER side note: I always wanted a car for Christmas and I always likes the Lexus commercials when families receive cars on Christmas day – it’s a little unrealistic though).
6. Pink beaded garland
7. 3 packs of battery operated lights
Not too much, but I already have a lot of Christmas decorations.
I told myself I wouldn’t get into the Christmas spirit until AFTER Thanksgiving but I couldn’t resist! It feels like Christmas started even earlier this year (like before Halloween). Anyone else agree?
While I was unpacking the bags I turned on my most favorite Christmas album – Neil Diamond!! In my personal opinion it isn’t Christmas until Neil Diamond sings ‘Joy to the World’.
This CD has two thumbs up in my book, but I needed the other thumb to take the picture.
So there you have it! Christmas has officially begun thanks to Neil Diamond!
… And back to our home projects – the garage walls are still being painted, and the ceiling can begin thanks to my drop cloths!
Anyone else love Neil Diamond? Or already start decorating for Christmas? How do you incorporate your Christmas tree with a turkey and pumpkins??
