Skiing with family and friends!

[Mysticalspark]

My favourite part of the Holidays includes spending time with the family and friends as most of us get to take the last few days of the year from work. Using these times to hang out, eat food and share our year's experiences are the greatest.

WOW!

I just discovered Public Mobile, and I thought they had pretty good deals.

1 week in, and I'm already a part of these great give-away gifts!

That's seriously awesome!

That's how you get customers to talk about, which is exactly what I'm going to do.
I have friends who were looking great deals.

TIme for me to start spreading the word!

Good job Public Mobile!

My favourite part of Christmas is being able to spend time with my family, especially by cooking together.  It's the most wonderful time of the year!

My favourite about xmas is having a chance to get together with family and friends.  we are too busy with our own lives on a daily activites that have neglected love ones around us, So xmas time is a perfect way to make up.

[poohchai]

My favourite about xmas is to see the all the decoration light up all around the city. It is the time to celebrate another year gone by.

[pm_kev]

My favourite part of this hoiday is connecting with friends and family.  Shopping for others and seeing the smile on their face when they receive a personalized present.  Hearing their voices or seeing their faces on a video chat whether they are in the same city or in another country. Technology makes me feel like I'm sharing Xmas with everyone in my life no matter how far away they are.

LOVE the holiday sweets and delicious food! 

[Mnallbani]

One thing about the holidays is how people's mood change towards giving to those that need help this time of year. Being with family, grateful for what I have in  the present moment. The snow and being able to skate and eat beavertails. It's a wonderful season ❤️

Definitely not being at crowded stores rushing last minute for gifts, but instead being with family and friends in a warm cozy home!

[nei_aru]

Giving without expecting is the real essence for me 

[samcat]

I am actually looking forward to not doing anything at all! Sleep - eat - watch tv and movies! No work over the holidays

[aveaero]

I love gathering with family members and spending the day together playing games, doing puzzles, opening gifts and sharing a delicious meal. Christmas time is all about spending time with the one's you love and reaching out to those less fortunate.
