It's my son's first Christmas. Really excited for my husband and I to teach him about the spirit of Christmas. Put some smiles on people's faces!

It seems like people treat each other a little better around the holiday season.

 

Even more if we could resist the need to make the celebrations perfect, in the quest for happiness.  You can't herd cats, but by ignoring them, they are all over you.

 

Take the time to step outside, and breath in deeply, that cold crisp fresh air.

All good.

Spending time with family eating delicious food and enjoying the warmth of the fireplace is definitely the best part. Having time off work to relax and plan future trips is a close second.

Spending time with my family.  Having fun in the snow.  The food and beverages.  2020 IIHF World Junior Hockey (lets go canada).

The family used to have this tradition of watching a DVD of an old Bill Cosby stand-up concert but we don't do that anymore so I guess I'll have to go with the food, specifically Mom's baking.  This year, I would like to start a new tradition of winning Amazon gift cards, so come on and help a player out.   Merry Christmas to one and all!

The best part about Christmas has always been family. I can't remember the gifts I got as a kids, but I can remember all of the experiences. This is year three that my kids are getting experiences instead of gifts and they have never been happier with that.

Christmas is special to our family because we all manage to put our busy lives aside and get together to celebrate the birth of Jesus our lords son.  😇

Watching the snow fall on the 24th evening and the 25th. Having Bing Crosby playing in the background. Watching all my loved ones smile and enjoy the fireplace and waking up in the morning to see my kids faces as they open their surprises from Santa!

The best part of the holiday season is spending time with family and friends you do not get to see as often as you would like!

Firstly, the best thing about holidays is waking up and finding ourselves blessed  with GIFTS OF LOVE. These gifts means a lot to the kids as you can find them in cloud nine while unpacking. Some can find TEARS of JOY too which happens in really rare occasions. 

Secondly, TOGETHERNESS. It brings the whole family and friends together.

Finally, Watching everyone happy makes us happy.

Let's celebrate joy of giving..

The absolute best part of the holiday season is the atmosphere. If you were to wake up from a coma right around the Holiday season you would know exactly which month of the year you are in. The chilly pre-winter days and the occasional snow followed by meeting the people that you know and love. It is also the feeling that we are close to completing yet another year and also to set the resolutions for the next. Happy Holidays!
