It’s never happened before but Shea and I are almost completely ready for Christmas and it’s not even December 1 yet!
We put the tree up right after Remembrance Day after making the mistake of saying/spelling “When do you want to put up the T-R-E-E?” in front of a little grade two kid who we sometimes forget is pretty good at spelling now! Once she heard what we were talking about, there was no turning back and the tree went up that same day!
We had already been doing a lot of our shopping ahead of time with uncertainty about another lockout and between Costco, Toys R Us, and a few local stores/vendors, we’ve basically ended up with all the gifts we need.
We’ve decorated our regular house, a gingerbread house and have even bought a turkey!
With all the uncertainty in the world these days, I’m sure that’s part of the reason we were looking to both have so much Christmas stuff “locked down” ahead of time but also to start trying to bring the joy of Christmas into our world a bit earlier than usual too!
