X-Mas Spirit

I just looooove christmas!!! From the gift shopping to the snow to the food to all the traditions.

As for the first, I´ve alreday started my xmas shopping, and I´m proud to say I´m pretty much done! :) I´ve bought presents for everyone in the family, down to a few little things. And very glad to have it done with. I haven´t even bought the same boring gifts, "socks and a book for dad" either! Now I only have to wrap it all, which I also enjoy! Yeah, I guess I´m weird. Maybe my years spent in the sun over xmas has affected me, but hey, I can´t really blame it on that ´cause I was the same way before that too! :)

We even had a little bit of snow here in Gothenburg which apparently doesn´t happen a lot. So I was out there dragging my feet in the snow tempted to tip my head and open my mouth to catch the snowflakes, but then I figured that was going too far... They´ve also lit around 4million lights at Liseberg, the amusement park and am going there to check it out and have some "glögg".

Only a few weeks away from xmas eve and we´re spending it at my sister´s house like they´ve done since Kajsa was born. My dad was close to book a vacation for him and mom over xmas, and when I said to him; "you can´t go over xmas, I´ll be home for once to celebrate with you" and he answered back; "that´s exactly why i think we should go"... I hope he was joking.... hm....

But before I can chow down ham, meatballs, candy, risgrynsgröt and ALL the other food we have for xmas, I have a a lot of things happening. A visitor coming this weekend, namely my cousin Pernilla, there´s Lucia and the baking of Lussekissar and gingerbread cookies with julmust, xmas markets, "glögg nights" and hopefully more snow so I can make snow-angels! :)

See, I´m way too busy to work full time!!!

23 days ´til Christmas!!!
