Are you fully in the holiday spirit yet?!  We are, especially having a 3 year old in the house that asks everyday when Santa’s coming.  I actually had my tree up sooner this year than any other year….before the end of November.  I must say, I like it.  December is so busy and goes by so fast, starting early seems like Christmas will last a little longer.

We’ve got our annual holiday party next Saturday.  We haven’t done a theme in a couple years, so we thought “why not” for this year.

from our "Ugly Sweater" party a couple years back

Its a James Bond 007 theme.  Fun, right?  I’m wearing an old grad dress I have.  No, not an ‘ugly’ grad dress, although I do have one of those too.  Fortunately, its a classic, so I’ve got some pretty good use out of it.  I didn’t have the time or energy this year to search high and low for ‘the perfect dress’.  I must say, it feels pretty good to still be able to fit into something I wore when I was 18!  (I’m 31, which I still haven’t come to terms with yet!)

In SkinnyScoop fashion, I wanted to create  little list of my 5 Favorite Christmas Traditions!  Would love to hear some of yours!  Drop them in the comments below 🙂
