Christmas comes early.

I'm wrapping Christmas presents while watching new episodes of Gossip Girl (Christmas is the time for indulgences right?), and I'm starting to get excited about Friday. Yes, Friday, Christmas day. We're faking Christmas a day early in my house because we're heading off on our holiday on Christmas day. What?! Like you wouldn't do it if you had two children who are yet to know what day it is if it meant you go on a tremendous holiday. I've even altered our advent calendar to end a day early. I'm just that sneaky.

(My parents switched my birthday on me one year. We were moving towns on the day of my actual birthday. So we celebrated it the week before. More convenient, apparently. So I just consider my little switcheroo balancing out the world.)

Changing the date doesn't bother me, as the meaning will still the same. Spending time with the family, eating good food, watching the children play with their gifts. Sure, it'll be a day early, but it'll still very much be Christmas.



Have a splendid Christmas all you lovelies. Make sure you rattle the presents under the tree. After all, we never actually really want to wait until Christmas anyway.

See you next year!
