Day 156: I get TWO Christmases this year?

It's pretty much more than this Christmas tree loving, carol singing, candy cane licking, tinsel throwing fool can handle! As if I'm not already lucky that I get to go home for the whole Christmas weekend, I get to spend the weekend before in a happy holiday haze with my honey (that is some fabulous alliteration...). After a bonus night of holiday romance at Longwood Gardens, I'm making dinner and dessert and we're exchanging gifts next to my 3 foot tree with my all my twinkle lights on glowing and my evergreen scented candles burning. Yes, I know I'm a Christmas cheeseball, but it makes me all gooey inside when I picture the loveliness of it all. Plus, I'm super psyched to give him his gift, I really don't think he'd expect it and I love a good surprise! (I hope it's not too much too soon though...I get so wrapped up in the joy of making someone happy that I lose track of where I may cross the line into too extravagant. Oh well, too late now!) Honestly, if you'd told me 6 months ago I'd have someone this special in my life to spend the holidays with I would have never believed you. But, it's really happening and I'm trying to enjoy every minute of it.
