Christmas In July


Every year we celebrate Christmas in July. We pick a convenient weekend, pull out and decorate the tree, watch Christmas movies all day – and yes, there’s even some presents to open. Some of you know that we are a military family, and as such, we learned a long time ago, that you just have to make the most of every day. So we have lots of family parties – usually just the four of us, and for all kinds of reasons – good report cards, Arbor Day, Football Season Kickoff, and any Friday, to name a few.
Once we’ve celebrated our Christmas in July – I’m so in the mood, I go ahead and get a jump on my Season’s Greetings! I try to have them all done before school starts. After school starts, it just seems like one fast downward slide through September, October, and November – right the holidays into the New Year. Trust me, I have plenty to keep me busy, and I’m always glad that my cards are ready to go!
