Holiday season must do activities

December truly ushers in the arrival of the holiday season. Am I crazy in thinking that the difference between November 30th and December 1st is truly magical? Suddenly the sights, sounds, and scents of the holiday season are everywhere. Taking the time to remember all of the lovely things to do around this time of year really gets me in the Christmas spirit. Below are some things to get excited for this month!

• Decorate the tree
• Shop for the perfect gifts
• Wear ugly sweaters
• Burn winter candles
• Drive around and look at Christmas lights
• Sing Christmas carols with friends
• Watch Christmas movies (both the bad and the good)
• Attend holiday parties and gift exchanges
• Wrap presents 
• Greet others with a special holiday smile 
• Bake Christmas cookies

... and so much more! For some reason I am really in the holiday spirit this year and ready to truly savor every part of this month. I know that I am just aching to bring out the ugly Christmas sweaters already! Luckily December is here and the festivities are now beginning.
