Christmas Traditions

Some things I love about Christmas:

~ The way the tree looks when it's all decorated and the lights are twinkling.
~ Brainstorming ideas for the perfect gift for my loved ones.
~ Hanging around while my dad carves the turkey. He always cuts off the perfect piece and sneaks it to me while Mom pretends to scold.
~ Black Friday shopping!
~ Spiced apple cider
~ Mom's apple pie
~ The pile of books my mother-in-law buys me. :-)
~ Christmas music
~ The time to relax and celebrate the Reason for the season

What about you?

And seeing me, right?! I just had to fight my sister off my copy of "Bliss." She doesn't know that hers is already under the tree!
