Not Much of a Scrinch Anymore.....

So, I may or may not have referred to myself as a "Scrinch" these past few weeks...

(A scrinch is a combo of a Scrooge and a Grinch, fyi)

I put up our tree but refused to decorate it....

I bought all the presents but I haven't wrapped them yet....

I ordered Christmas cards at the very last minute...

But something happened to me over the past few days---I no longer feel like a Scrinch!!!

It's a Christmas miracle!!!

I decorated our tree this morning!





I just need my 6'5 hubby to come home from work to put up the angel on top!!!

Here are my 2 favorite ornaments on our tree this year:




This is our wedding invitation!!!!!

And I wanted to show you all our very first Christmas card we have ever sent out!!!!

I LOVE IT!!!!







I just need to go to the store and buy some Eggnog and start wrapping gifts!!!

Happy Monday!!!!

Ah, MERRY CHRISTMAS!
So glad you aren't a scrinch (spelled right?) anymore.

Your tree is beautiful, I love the ornaments you have. And seriously?! He's 6'5"? How tall are you?! I admit, I didn't think you were that tall...power of the picture perception. haha

Your cards are so adorable! I am feeling much like a "scrinch" too but that's probably because I am still working - at least I'll be done on Friday!

The ornament is so perfect!! I love that you are so secretive about your man! I plan on being the same way once I reveal my guy. But I'm too selfish to introduce him :)
