Christmas favors.JPG

These are the favors for Selfish Mom's Club tomorrow night. Inside are sugar cookies decorated with red and green sugar crystals. The house is almost completely ready except for the things I can only do tomorrow. I didn't want to risk waking Keegan up with the vacuum. Getting ready really helped me finish up the final phase of moving in. Sometimes you need a kick in the pants. I made enough extra cookies to fill my present to my Secret Santa. I also packed two into Keegan's lunchbox. He'll think it's the wrong lunch because I never pack cookies. The house smells yummy which explains why they turned that scent into a candle. Unfortunately I smell like Pl*dge and W*ndex. That's hott.
