Christmas is in the Air

On Wednesday night Aaron came in the door after work and handed me a birthday present. He hadn't even read my whiny post about no one doing anything for me for my birthday, he just did it on his own. What a guy. I definitely deserve a kick in the ass after all that whining, but I got presents instead.

Nothing big, of course, but something about which I'm excited. I love all things Christmas, but there are three things about Christmas I especially love: 1) Christmas music, 2) Christmas baking, and 3) Christmas movies. Well, Aaron got me 2 DVDs for my birthday - the Santa Clause and the Santa Clause 2.

I haven't seen the second one yet, and can't wait to watch it, but haven't had a chance yet. I was planning on watching it tonight, but then I saw that The Polar Express is going to be on ABC tonight, and I'd love to watch that too. We're going to have to stay up late and watch SC2 after the Polar Express. Can you imagine how thrilled Aaron will be about this?

I do know one way to get him in the Christmas mood though. I'm buying a small bottle of peppermint schnapps on the way home to put in some hot chocolate. We already have the whipped cream at home. He'll do pretty much anything for the three of those combined. So will I.

We're also putting up our tree tonight, so I'll get to listen to some of my Christmas cds while we're doing that. It sounds like it's going to be a very Christmas-y night.

I can't wait!
