Thanksgiving to Christmas in 23 days....oh my!

This morning I sat and viewed some blogs and saw all those who have blown past Thanksgiving and are in full blown Christmas mode.  I mean like trees up and houses, porches, even powder rooms all beautifully decorated.  Really?? I mean wasn't Thanksgiving just a few days ago?  oh yeh, it was. 

I am still patting myself on the back for pulling that festive Thanksgiving dinner together and managing to set the table: 



And buying flowers and making a centerpiece with the kids:
 
 
And heck - even making the name tags for the table:

 
and alas....dinner was over in an hour or so :(
 
Today, Monday morning on the car pool drive, I am told it's Dec 2nd and I have 23 days until Christmas.  Since this is where I am at on Christmas, I guess I had better get my ass in gear! 
 
 
Very pathetic indeed! 
Not sure 23 days is enough time to pull this sad old tree together but I plan to give it my best college try.

Your table is gorgeous and if you cooked the whole meal, I am not surprised it was done in an hour. It was probably amazing as usual!
