Who isn’t busy this time of year right?  We are back from Las Vegas (photos from that trip coming soon) and now we are moving quickly towards the holiday and the New Year.

Last week I was busy preparing for my son’s kindergarten classroom party and now that that is over I can focus on what needs to be done for Christmas! Today I will wrap presents and make a list of any last minute things that have to be done before Wednesday.

As I get older I am finding that handwritten lists are more important than ever.  I am thinking that a “to do” journal that I can keep right beside my computer is key.  For some reason electronic computer to do lists don’t work for me.  I seem to like to be able to see the physical handwritten check marks of accomplishment! Therefore, I might hop off to my scraproom today to create a new journal for 2009.

Before I go I thought I would share a fun quickpage I downloaded from Weeds & Wildflowers. They have been hosting an amazing 25 days to Christmas countdown with free digi giveaways everyday.  I think I have downloaded enough freebies to create my entire Christmas layouts this year!  I owe them my life; this blog event will save me a ton of time after the holiday photos are ready to go!  There are still 5 days left so if you want to check it out you should!
