I don’t know about everyone else, but I’m beyond excited for Christmas on Monday/Tuesday! I absolutely love Christmas! The lights, the treats, the delicious food, everyone gathered together, and of course the gifts are nice too. I wouldn’t be a normal human being if I didn’t like presents
1. A tripod for my new camera. I’m really excited about my camera, but I’ve definitely got shaky hands and daylight savings has really affected my ability to take decent pictures for the blog but a new tripod would definitely fix that problem!
2. I need a new pea coat, badly. The one I’ve got has high-water sleeves and I can’t button it across the chest haha.
3. No Christmas would be complete without a gift card of some sort! And I’m definitely digging Home Goods for accessories and those special little touches around the house.
4. These booties are from Target and are adorable and I want them. Enough said.
5. My favorite pjs in the world are my flannels, but unfortunately they are full of holes and falling apart so some new ones under the tree would be more than welcome.
6. And of course everyone has to have the one “big” gift they want and for me it’s tickets to the Mary Poppins Musical. The show is coming to Richmond in February and I absolutely must go!
So what’s on your Christmas list? I hope you’ve all been nice and get what you want!
I love the pea coat! Where is it from?
Target! I don’t necessarily want that one so I didn’t link it, but it is super cute
Those are adorable boots!
PS – Fun camera trick I learned in school: if you hit the shutter button after you exhale (before you inhale again), your photos will be less blurry
Thanks for the tip! Definitely going to have to try that!
Good list. Camera tripods make a world of difference for those low light, long exposure shots..
Definitely and now that I have a big girl DSLR I really need one! It sucks to have the nice camera but they’re still blurry haha
Love these ideas! I need a new tripod this year and I’m crossing my fingers that Santa brings one! Mine leans way over to the right! LOL!
Have a Merry, Merry Christmas my wonderful friend!

I have a long rectangular box under the tree so I’ve got my fingers crossed that’s what it is
Merry Christmas to you too sweet Karianne!
Ooh, what a fun list! I especially love that Mary Poppins tickets are on your list! I love musicals, and that is a great one!
Great list!! I’m excited for Christmas too!
I hope you get everything you want, and more!
I haven’t really thought about what I might like for Christmas. I did use the money that ML’s parents gave me and purchased a new ESV study Bible. I’m pretty pumped about it because I have had my current one for over ten years now.
Today I realized that I had bought the Chloe Coscarelli cookbook for me but don’t have any money left for anybody to give it to me. Looks like it might just have to be a gift from me to me.
Secretly, I would love the Google Nexus 7 but doubt that will happen since I didn’t tell anyone about it. Maybe I’ll purchase it with some Christmas money.
I hope you get the tripod! Ever since i started shooting house pics with a tripod, my whole world has changed.
Numbers 1 and 3 are definitely on my list too! I saw Mary Poppins in Boston a couple of years ago and it was awesome!
You will love having a tripod. Ours is so stinkin’ handy.
I asked for a Roomba vacuum robot and a new coffee table made by hubby. It’s gonna be a great Christmas!
Um, yes, please! I told my husband I wouldn’t mind a christmas card from Home Goods this year
Love that store. I made a Christmas list for both him and me (http://everyday-simple.blogspot.com/2012/12/wish-list-1-missus.html). The in-laws like some visual representation, haha. I figured that was the easiest way to show them.
Mary Poppin’s rocks!
Hope you get everything you wish for this Christmas, Ashley!
