Happiness Is Homemade Link Party #407

Messy Messy Fail - Don't you hate it when you hide presents so well that even you can't find them?  At least my husband didn't care after presenting him with a few after lunch that I realized I forgot to put out.

Tidy Victory - Christmas was a great success - lots of food, laughter and Christmas spirit for sure!  

Happiness Is Homemade Link Party #406

Messy Messy Fail - I've got some hubbard squash that I grew in the pumpkin patch to make into soup.  It was originally outside on the side porch along with the other pumpkins for decor.  I always forget to being it in before it freezes and gets ruined!

Tidy Victory - Presents are gettin?g wrapped tomorrow, cookies on Tuesday and Wednesday - come at me Christmas!

Happiness Is Homemade Link Party #405

Messy Messy Fail - Where does one hide all of their WRAPPED Christmas presents?  In the past my husband and I have waited until Christmas Eve to wrap but we want to enjoy the night before Christmas instead. :). Plain cardboard shipping boxes can practically be hidden in plain sight, but not after they are wrapped.  Must come up with a plan...

Tidy Victory - Christmas cards are addressed, stamped and sealed!  I am notoriously sending Christmas cards out at the last minute so I'm very happy to have this project done.  

Happiness Is Homemade Link Party #404

Messy Messy Fail - I have forgotten what day of the week it is 5 times this week.  Since Sunday.  It is now Thursday.  And I never got this link party up.

Tidy Victory - Christmas shopping is DONE!  With the exception of some little stocking items, I am all set.  This is the absolute earliest I've ever completed this task, as I'm the one usually doing the shopping with advice from my husband.  But it feels good to not be rushing around.  Now it's time to concentrate on cookie making!
