I can't believe that Christmas is just 2 days away. It seems like it was just a few weeks ago that I was sipping on a margarita over at Steve's parents house while we celebrated Christmas last year. Time flies and I would have never guessed last Christmas that our life would be so different this year.
I'm surviving here in Madison. We've already broken last years amount of snowfall for the month of December and last year was a record breaker! Steve is definately getting lots of practice with driving on icy roads and shoveling the sidewalks. Needless to say we're definitley going to have a white Christmas this year.
I've found that as I progress in age I've gotten into the holidays more. I get really excited about driving around and looking at lights and enjoy making our house feel festive. This year things will be different since we'll be all alone at Christmas, but I think it will be fun nonetheless.
Steve's been reading up on making Chicago style deep dish pizza and is wanting to make that for our Christmas meal. He's going to make the dough today and has to let it sit for at least 24 hours. We'll see how it all turns out. It may not be a traditional Christmas meal, but we're just not traditional type of people, so I guess it's not that out of the ordinary for us. I'm so glad that I have a husband who's a lot more skilled in the kitchen than I am.
Before we know it 2009 will be here. I'm still getting used to writing "2008" when I date all my checks, so I'm sure I'll be confused for the next 11 1/2 months again before the big "10" hits us.
Hope ya'll have a happy and safe Christmas.

I always have a hard time with writing the new year down as well! I think it only takes me about 6 months though. :D
