My favourite part of the holidays in recent years is giving gifts, and watching their reaction when they open them! Each year I choose one family member to make a handmade blanket for (usually crocheted), and I spend about 3 months working on it (usually over the summer like a dummy, what better time to have a bunch of wool on my lap). And I am so excited for this year's as I have made a gorgeous blanket for my sister and she is going to freak out! I can't wait 🙂

My favourite moments at Christmas is being gathered around the tree early in the morning on Dec 25th with our young and older children so excited that they are bursting at the seams to start tearing the wrap off of our carefully packaged gifts! Family being together is the joy that Christmas brings! 🙂

Nothing beats the holiday with snow and relaxing at home to 98.1 non-stop Christmas Music & 104.5 top songs of the year~
12-11-2019 11:08 PM
My favourite part of the holiday season is that it is a chance to get cozy with family or go outside and have a happy, frozen time. Regardless, the holiday’s is a refreshing break to reset gears and stay sane with all the crazy things going on in the world. It's so nice to see everyone having a wonderful time with their loved ones and celebrate Christmas, Hanukkah, or simply the holidays. Around this time, it offers a selection of activities to do because we have the option to stay inside, all nice and warm or be adventurous and go outside with the bright, luffy snow. Plus, almost everyone has a 2-ish week break, family is free and we get to cherish what we have. Honestly, we should have more holidays, it could help other problems and give us more winter breaks, I'm talking about climate change.

My absolute favorite thing about the Christmas holidays is having all of the most important people in my life under one roof. It really does not get better than sharing stories and laughs, decorating the Christmas tree, eating way too much food (bless Mom's cooking), and so on!

Spending time with loved ones is what makes it special. Gathering for a family meal, enjoying time outdoors, singing carols, sharing laughs and savouring moments together.
