It's Ok that I am Overloading you with Christmas Pics

Am I the only one who feels like

Christmas came up really quickly,

and flew by?

It really felt like it came up suddenly,

and then it never happened!

Dan and I thought we had another 2-3 weeks 

until Christmas...

hence why we started and finished shopping on Saturday.

We actually still have some more to do

for people we have not seen yet.

But sshh!

They don't know that ;)

Anywho,

I am about to SUPER overload you with pictures.

I'm more about the giving and showing,

than showing what I myself received.

It's much more fun! 

I'd love it if you could stick with me and my glass o' Riesling,

there's definitely a lot of joy to share.

got this wonderful idea from pinterest.

the one on pinterest was also of a normal size that somebody could actually put on their wall for decoration.

And because it is Thursday,

I couldn't pass up my favorite linkup EVER with Amber and Neely!

I promise it'll be short.

It's ok...

...That I just bombarded everybody with pictures

...that most won't look at said pictures and/or their captions

...to want to make another vlog

...to wish that Christmas didn't go by so quickly

...that our plans for New Years aren't existent

...that I can't wait for February

...that I only have 2 more days until I'm off for a whole week!!!!

...that I'm addicted to Alex and Ani bracelets. I got my first one from my sister for Christmas and now I have like 20 on my wishlist

...for Karla and I to hope that we have a ton of people linking up with us for Instagramazing Monday!!

And that is all for now.

If you made it this far,

thanks for stickin with me.

If you didn't, 

then you have no idea what I'm saying so I could be saying nothing or 

something really important that you should know about :)

Ta ta for now <3
