The Checklist...

I feel the need to start this post by sharing this photo and wondering, along with you, why...??

Do you all have a list? I am the queen of lists. I make lists of the lists I have. I leave a list somewhere and then I make another list and all of a sudden I have seven of the same lists. This year I have added a checklist for my journal to my list. :) Surprisingly, I've never made this list before. Some things on this list may not make sense alone but they are included for the sake of my Christmas journal.

*capture the snow *

*send a letter to Santa *

*Advent service *

*decorate *

*Christmas parade *

*Christmas movie marathon

*address cards *

*Christmas shopping 1/2 *

*take boys shopping

*wrap presents

*Midweek party *

*Christmas Cantata

*Christmas hair cuts

*Whitehall faculty benefit concert

*Sunday School program

*check out Christmas lights

*bake cookies {x 3}

*handmade gifts

*volunteer *

*donate {time, money, warm clothes} 1/2 *

****************************************************

The list is long and the checks aren't plenty but we'll get through. I have to keep rearranging the plan because of added birthday parties,sleepovers and banquets but I am thankful for the people in our lives who are the reason for the rearranging. Am I missing anything? What is on your list?

***Happy Anniversary, mom and dad!***
