Santa Claus is Coming to Town

The holiday season is in full swing around our house. My final final was turned in, and I am officially done with classes (this is such a wonderful feeling!). There is snow on the ground (though it's only a dusting), the tree is up and decorated (notice there aren't any ornaments at the bottoms because of the cats),  presents are purchased and wrapped, and the lights are up outside. Now all I need it for Christmas to get here already! 

I usually don't get this excited about Christmas, but after such a trying semester, I can't wait for the happiness that Christmas promises. Also, it doesn't hurt that there is going to be a baby in the house for Christmas this year!
