Attention Attention: Christmas is Coming!!!

 I have officially kicked off my Christmas shopping today. I'm tired and over whelmed trying to figure out what gifts to get  for everyone. I have to start early because i don't like to rush or shop on black friday.

I feel Christmas has become less about the tradition and family gatherings but more about getting gifts. I don't want my children growing up spoiled so i have decided this Christmas i want it to be more about being together as a family rather then focusing on only gifts.

We defiantly will be cutting our own tree down this year which will serve as a great family outing and be decorating it together (instead of me just doing it ) while listening to Christmas carols. I want my kids to be in the spirit and enjoy the time we share together.(while sipping hot coca w/ mini marshmallows, of coarse)

It's so important as parents to bring your family together and enjoy each others laughs and smiles because we can all tend to get lost in the monotony of everyday life which can consume us to the point we don't even realize you really haven't spent any time together!

Please comment with any Christmas ideas, tips, advice, or stories!

Good Luck Moms on your holiday shopping, I know it can be stressful !
