I don't know about any of you, but I feel lately with Christmas creeping up like the pressure is building. The pressure to get gifts, decorate, make plans for baking. It's tough when you work all week. You basically have the weekend to shop, bake, decorate, do all that you could do during the week. Add into the mix the everyday things you do on weekends, laundry, catching up on weekend errands, playing with your only child...it's tough around this time of year for working moms! But I won't make this post a pity party for myself, but I will just plow ahead and do what I have to do to make this Christmas extra special for James. Just like I will make all the future Christmas' extra special for him!

But first up we have thanksgiving and I premade this turkey from an Oriental Trading craft. I have 11 more to make, LOL! I figure we can make these one weekend and hang them on a little ornament tree. Depends on what I find at HomeGoods.



and last but not least the Green Snowman update for the end of this work week
