Here are 10 things that I just LOVE!
1. Family ~ Of course I love my family ALL the time. They are the love of my life! Being able to be with them on the holidays and share that time with them, watching my little ones open their gifts means so much to me.
2. Giving, yes.... I LOVE to give gifts! I love seeing a person's reaction when they open up the gift. You know what is even better? Try spending just a little more time on wrapping the gift for that special someone. Make your own ribbon, add some extra flare with holiday extras and hear all the ooooos and aaaaaaas.
3. Decorating! I could celebrate the holidays every single day of the year. I love hanging the lights with my husband and my little ones. They definitely take after me and like to decorate the inside and the outside of the house. Their smiles are so precious and is the best part of it all.
4. The smells! I like the cinnamon spice, the fresh pine smell of newly cut Christmas trees, and the fabulous candles and other aromas you can buy for the holidays. Oh, did I forget to mention the luring smell of what is in the oven? Which leads me to...
5. Baking! As if I do not love it any other time, I love it even more. The holidays give you a reason why you can bake, and bake, and bake..... do you know how many holiday recipes there are for sweets and treats? Oh, the list is endless! I do love to bake a cheesecake though, and decorating it is even more fun.
6. Shopping! How can someone not? If you read about my Black Friday Shopping trip you know that I do sound like a shopaholic around the holidays. It is a great time, and always fun to do with family and friends.
7. If I like shopping, then of course I love the deals around the holidays. I have come across some fantastic deals, and keep finding more as we move closer to Christmas. I will be sharing all of these great deals soon!
8. Being with everyone, sitting around the table, thankful for what we have, and enjoying and appreciating everything we have, and everything we made.
What do you love about the holidays? Please share with us and we will post! Keep them coming!
