Digitally Printed Garments

I am trying to establish a Christmas Eve tradition for my family. Ever since we stopped going to my husband’s grandmother’s house for her family Christmas party on Christmas Eve, we haven’t really had anything to do that night. At first I was okay with that, after having somewhere to go every single Christmas Eve since I was a baby (growing up we went to my dad’s family gathering on Christmas Eve then once I was married we started going to my husband’s family function), it was nice to not have to pack up the kids and go anywhere, getting home late only to wrestle with the kids to get them into their new Christmas printed pajamas and then to bed so I could relax and put out the Santa presents. But after a couple of years of having nothing to do, I realized that I missed it. And since I want Christmas Eve to be enjoyable and not stressful, I’ve tried to think of something fun to do. Last year I came up with the idea of putting some hot chocolate in a thermos, grabbing some snacks, and after an early supper of homemade pizza, heading out to drive around and look at Christmas lights for a while, then head home and put the kids to bed. That seemed to work well and we all enjoyed it so we’re going to do it again this year. It’s also a good opportunity for me to take some lovely high color photographs of the Christmas lights. I’m not sure it’s a tradition that will hold since after a while the kids will get too old to want to look at Christmas lights, but it will work as a tradition for the foreseeable future anyway.

In about one week, guess what time it is??? Time to finally pick which font I want to use for my digitally printed business cards and storefront sign for my non-existent photography business? No, silly! It’ll be the very end of October which translates to me that it is time to pull out the Christmas music and Christmas movies. I own about twenty-five Christmas CD’s and several Christmas movies and for whatever reason, Halloween always makes me start thinking about Christmas. Maybe it’s because by then the stores are already starting to put out their Christmas merchandise or maybe it just because by the time Halloween rolls around, Christmas is only two  months away. Either way, I can’t wait. Christmas movies and Christmas music are my favorite! In fact, I’m getting a bit of a jump on things this evening. I was in the mood to watch a movie so the one I ended up choosing was The Holiday. I love this movie and watch it several times each Christmas season. Another fav is It’s A Wonderful Life. I even made sure to get the digitally remastered version a couple of years ago. I always try to get in at least three viewings each season with the final one being on Christmas Eve. Yay for the holiday season coming up so soon!
