It is hard to believe that Christmas is only 3 weeks away! Are you ready? I have barely started planning, but I am working on it this week. To help out you (and me) I have a free printable Holiday planner for getting all your lists organized.
It is important to plan things out for the holidays, so you know what you can afford to spend. I always try to have about the same number of gifts for each kid too, which takes some planning. One of my daughters is getting a new phone this year, which is expensive. So I need to get a bunch of smaller gifts for her to even things out so she still has presents to unwrap.
Then there is all the cooking. I am hosting Christmas dinner at my house this year for our family, so I also have lots of meal planning to do too. I like having a running shopping list, so I can write things down as I think of them and try to avoid last minute trips to the store. There have been quite a few years lately where we have had to stop at the store before church on Christmas Eve because I forgot to buy something important, like gravy.
The planner will help you get organized and be in control! Many people have getting more organized as a New Year’s resolution, but why not start now? The printable planner includes
- Christmas Gifts Checklist
- Christmas Wishlist
- Secret Santa Planner
- Christmas Dinner Menu
- Christmas Grocery List
- Letter from Santa for a child
You can download the planner here: Free Printable Holiday Planner or just click on the picture below.
Very cool!! I can’t believe Christmas is right around the corner! We will blink and it will be 2014!!
