I love spending time with my kids and hubby. It might be decorating the tree, baking, or viewing the holiday lights...as long as we share time together.

The best part of Christmas is getting together with family and friends.
12-06-2019 04:59 PM
My favourite part of the holiday season is shopping in Boxing Day!
12-06-2019 04:53 PM
The snow!
12-06-2019 04:51 PM
I love the feeling of coziness and warmth when you hear old-time Christmas carols, see the colored lights up in abundance on trees and buildings, and experience the hugs, smiles, and generosity of your friends, family members, and even strangers who go out of their way to celebrate the season. People are a little bit kinder and merrier, and it brings back the feeling of being a kid again.
Thank you, Public Mobile!
12-06-2019 04:50 PM
Bundling up and going out outdoors with family and friends. We all love going out ice fishing and of course sledding up in the mountains over Christmas holidays!
12-06-2019 04:49 PM
I personally love the holidays because of the way the world changes with snow. It's like a new place waiting to be explored with friends, pets and family.
12-06-2019 04:49 PM
My favourite part of the holiday season is getting together with family and good friends. I'm most grateful for the festive spirit we share and reconnecting seasonally with the people I love. Of course, we have our phones to connect with people all year long, but the face-to-face time over the holidays is truly special Happy Holidays, Public Mobile Community!

Going for Vacation with family.

Snow... Christmas Trees... Gifts... Boxing Day!
12-06-2019 04:45 PM
Best thing about Christmas is that people are a little kinder and nicer. Willing to pause and take care of each other a bit more than the rest of year. My favourite part is to be able to slow down and recouperate.
12-06-2019 04:28 PM
My favarite part of holiday is taking time off and enjoying time with family and friends. Make me drunk and win the price
12-06-2019 04:27 PM

I like getting presents like an amazon gift card.
12-06-2019 04:24 PM
The best part of the holiday is volunteering with my partner to help feed , cloth and make less fortunate people's time a little brighter 🙂

My favorite part about the holiday season is the feeling it gives you. Even though it happens every year, it is still a refreshing time of the year.
12-06-2019 04:19 PM
Well for me Christmas is all about family. As a young mother of two daughters its my goal to make sure their Christmas is always one to remember. A big delicious turkey dinner that makes are home smell amazing. The decorations that brighten the room! The big Christmas tree that bring in the smell of pines. Everything about Christmas makes my heart warm.
12-06-2019 04:19 PM
I love giving presents. I get so excited to pick out the perfect gift for someone I love. I'm currently trying to pass this experience on to my 6yo. I took him to the mall to pick out a gift for his dad. It took us over an hour and I finally had to make the decision for him but he is pretty thrilled about it. We like to talk about how happy his dad will be on Christmas morning.
12-06-2019 04:18 PM
Can't wait to bake for, and see the family!
12-06-2019 04:16 PM
I like the Christmas trees and Christmas promos like these!
