Christmas in September?

Yay!  September is here, the promise of fall.  I love this time of the year - the leaves changing, visits to the pumpkin patch, jeans and long sleeve tshirts, all the traditional fall activities.  But... is it to early for me to start thinking about Christmas and getting a head start on that gift giving list when my sun burns are barely healed?  Just a thought as my "obsessive compulsive need to plan for things that are months ahead" rears it head for the change of season!
