Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas:
- the traditions eg. Christmas baking and all the delicasies I get to make, Christmas stockings!!!, Christmas morning brunch with my mom's amazing sticky
buns - seeing family and friends that I don't often get to see
- all the good food!
- Christmas tunes
- Christmas movies (oh yes...the Grinch!)
- taking time to think about and remember the Christmas story
- Christmas Eve services
- I used to like lounging around on Christmas day, but I now have to split up Christmas day between 2 sometimes 3 different gatherings (but that's ok too)
And there's many more things, but those are just a few.
Okay, to each their own ...
ReplyDeleteBUT ... when Christmas is being hyped up as soon as Halloween is over, that's a little too soon.
And sometimes I find that the hype is far too much; by the time the day actually comes, it's a HUUUGE let-down.
And this year - as it was two years ago - my family will be split between two provinces Christmas day... sooo sad.
