The Chaotic household has been just that. We, just like the other magnitudes of people out there are gearing up for the holidays. Our Holidays include travel... which always made this time of year interesting.
Those families that are fortunate enough to all live in the same area don't get to experience the joys of flying with gifts. If you wrap them before you fly, your baggage is GUARANTEED to be searched. (I'm all for extra security, but when they rip the paper on a lovely wrapped gift or multiple gifts it is a tad annoying.) So this year, I am going to be shipping our presents home via our favorite shipping company (and no it's not the big brown truck...gotta stick with family ;) )
In the meantime, I am attempting to get my house into the season. We put our tree up the weekend after Thanksgiving. I refuse to NOT have a tree in my house, despite the fact that we are, when possible, at home with family for the holiday.
If you know anyone serving overseas, the deadline for them to get presents intime for the holiday is fast approaching (if not passed already). Don't worry! Soliders, Sailors, Marines and Airmen LOVE gifts, and if you can stretch the holidays out for them ;) I know they would appreciate it! Don't forget... they wish they where home just as much as we wish they where here with us!
A photoblog is forth coming, I promise! In the next couple of days!
