Christmas, My Favorite Holiday
Let's Talk Holidays. I Think Pretty Much Everyone Has Favorite One. Do You? If So, What Is It? Mine As You Learned Above Mine Is Christmas, But Probably Not For The Reason Your Thinking, It Does Not Have Nothing At All To Do With The Money Aspect. It's The Lights, The Tree, The Holly Jolly Feeling, And Most Of All, Jesus. One Of My All Time Favorite Things About The Whole Christmas Season is The Lights And The Décor. I Would Be Lying If I Told You That I Didn't Stay Up Later Than Everyone Else In My House So That I Could Sit In The Dark Living Room And Stare At The Tree And All Twinkling Lights. It's The Most Amazing Feeling. I've Always Been The One To Decorate As Soon As I Could For The Christmas Holiday. The More Décor The Better In My Opinion, And Yes In My Head We Have To Have A Brand New Theme Every Single Year (Lol). This Year I'm Thinking Rustic Or Simple Western, But Honestly It's Still Early So Who Really Knows. Now On To That Holly Jolly Feeling. I Am The Friend That Every One Has That Is All Into The Ugly Sweaters, Gingerbread Houses, Ornament Making And Christmas Party Having. It's All Just So Much Fun To Me. Now My 100% Favorite Part Of It All Is Wrapping Presents. I Could Sit And Do It For Hours Upon Hours. This Is Really Why My Momma Loves Me (Lol) Because I Love Everything To Do With Wrapping Presents And She Absolutely Despises It! I Also Love Picking Out Wrapping Paper And Making Bows. We Have So Many Other Small Traditions That We Done Through The Years When I Was A Child. One Of My Fondest Childhood Memories Is That Every Year Each Member Of Our Family Would Get A Personal Ornament That Was Most Personal To Them. We Still Do This As The Years Have Passed On And Now We Have Started Adding Significant Others In On The Tradition Too. Actually Last Year We Incorporated Matching Couples Ornaments In To The Tradition Too. Another Big One On My List Is Christmas Movies, My Fiancée And I Are Really Big Movie People. I Love Them All, The Grinch, Christmas Story 1&2, Polar Express, Home Alone And A Brady Bunch Christmas. We Watch All The Goodies Every Single Year. Honestly Just Writing This Blog Has Me Ready To Break Out My Christmas Décor I Do Have And Start Decorating Now! I Mean Is It Ever Really To Early? I Am So Very Thankful That I Was Raised To Understand The True Meaning Of Christmas With A Grandmother Who Loved Christmas But Loved Jesus Even More. She Always Made Sure We Read Ad New The Story Of The Birth Of Jesus During The Christmas Holidays Especially. So Now I Want to Know... What Is Your Favorite Holiday? Is There A Memory Or A Story That Goes Along With It Or Is It Just A Feeling That You Get When It Comes Around? I Really Would Love To Know!
