A little Christmas Spirit

It was bound to happen.  Three Christmas parties in 2 days has let a little Christmas spirit creep in to my previous Grinchy heart.

Last night's staff party was great.  The meal was excellent, the performance was very funny and the company was entertaining. 

Now it is a road trip to the Jones Family Christmas Cookie exchange. And as a bonus, the weather is perfect for travelling this time of year.  I think these look great and passed inspection/taste test from Auntie.  (She is quite a critic, so I consider these good cookies)


It has been a few months since I have seen them and I am really looking forward to it.  Then this evening is supper with a group of great friends.  Busy day but all good.  Spending a day with all the people I love. 

CHEERS  (yes there might even be a few opportunities tonight to raise a glass)  wink

    It's taking me a while to feel Christmassy too. The tree is up - that helps.

    Kim, don't let that Christmas Spirit out of your site. I turned down two Christmas parties last week because of feeling like cocooning after working all day.

    Your cookies look very classy and I'm sure that they will be a hit with the Jones. I hope that your visit will be wonderful. Hugs. JB
