Christmas in July 2016 - day 7
- Thread starter luludou
- Start date
We are in the middle of watching Santa Clause 3. We have hot chocolate and mars bar cookies- I did not make them but picked them up at the shops. The heater is on and its cosy and warm inside- cold outside though! I might go through my planner later when DS goes to bed.
I will continue to work on Christmas planning today! Finalizing menus, baking plans, etc. and then updating my master grocery list spreadsheet mainly.
I may browse for stocking stuffer ideas as well! I like the idea of bookmarking them as someone else mentioned recently!

With working full time its hard to plan much so I have been catching a movie or 2 on the Hallmark Channel. I think I weekend I will work on updating my binder ... need to get more ink first so I can print out some new sheets for it though. Its way to hot to do much outside ands its suppose to stay that way through the weekend.. good excuse to stay inside and do something Christmas related.
Listening to Captain & Tennille Christmas CD - bought it last year. I just love Christmas music - it makes me feel good. DH will make aebleskivers for lunch; I'm looking forward to it. We were introduced to aebleskivers years ago at a Scandinavian Days celebration. One of my treasures that I unpack first whenever we move is the cast iron aebleskiver pan.
Sounds like lots of you are in the spirit!!
I am continuing to work on my embroidered towels (gifts). My blog post is up.

I ordered Meet Me In St Louis from Amazon!
I also ordered a copy of The Pajama Elves for DS this year. Can't wait!

luludou - Hmmm, I would guess that The Pajama Elves would work for very young children up to whatever point young ones are still "believing"
It's heavy on pictures, but a really cute idea about the elves magically measuring the children for a special pair of pajamas, how they will be delivered etc. I'm really looking forward to reading the book with DS this year and having a "delivery" of his Christmas PJs!
Have you never seen Meet Me In St Louis? It is SUCH a good movie! I've been showing DS clips of some of the songs on YouTube and I'm hoping he'll watch the full movie with me!
