Christmastime

"It's Christmastime again, another year has come and gone..." - With Bells On sung by Dolly Parton

Happy December 1st! 25 days until Christmas! It's hard to believe it's here again. As I've said, Christmas is my all time favorite. Without a doubt, I know each December post will be filled with reasons why...but today it seems appropriate to release my and TC's Christmas MUST-DO list! We've been working on it here and there in much anticipation. Last year was called "the year we missed Christmas." Long story, but in short sickness stole all of the fun.

So here's our plans where they are now....more to come!

1. Decorate the tree... we did this a little early :)

2. Go Christmas light looking

3. Christmas shopping for the perfect gifts

4. Wrapping party

5. Christmas movie marathon with hot chocolate

6. Go on our annual Christmas date - place TBA

7. Host a Christmas party

8. Attend a Christmas party

9. Send Christmas cards

10. Find a live nativity

11. Go carolling/Listen to carollers

12. Find snow and make snowman and snow angel

13. Attend a Christmas play/show

14. Bake any of our family's traditional Christmas recipes

15. Find a huge, festive, Christmas light display (I have a place in mind)

16. Watch "Elf"

17. Go to a Christmas parade

Our goal is to be intentional about enjoying this Christmas season no matter what we do! Everyone enjoy making your own list!
