For me, it is being around family. This year is extra special though. We will be introducing a little one into our family. 

I will be a grandma for the first time - to a sweet little boy. 😍

One thing I love about the holiday season is gift giving! Since my love language is gift giving and receiving, I really, really adore the gift giving aspect in the holiday season. I love thinking about what to get other people for Secret Santa and what they would really like! I really appreciate the thought that goes into getting a gift, wrapping it, and writing a heartfelt card. That's my favourite part of the holiday!

My favourite part of the holidays is being able to share them with friends and family. It is a time to get nothing accomplished and just spend quality time together whatever the people or in my case typically kids want to do. This could be playing games, watching movies, cooking new food, etc. Friends and family are always welcome to join and no one should be alone.

I look forward to my 2 weeks off work just to relax and celebrate the holidays!

My favourite part of the holiday season is to go a holiday cruise and spend time and have fun with family and friends as well as celebrate Christmas and New Year together.

I love the magic of the season all the joy the season brings, I love buying for my family and seeing the joy and happiness in their faces Christmas morning

My favorite part of the holiday season is a mixture of everything. For me, it's all the little things that put me into that Christmas spirit. Piping hot chocolate while looking at all the Christmas lights, baking cookies, decorating the house, Christmas music everywhere, shopping, and most importantly, spending time with our loved ones.

Spending time with the entire family, sharing an abundance of wonderful food, watching the fire on the TV while listening to Christmas music, and drinking eggnog.

What I love about the holidays is when my Public Mobile account works and the free gifts, rewards I received.  I think this service has a huge change of taking over the world of cell phone plans but at times it can be frustrating.  So for the holidays I hope Santa and the elves bring a little cheer to Public Mobile and thank their employees for what they do!

The thing I love most is the FOOD! Eggnog, cookies, mashed potatoes, stuffing - the list goes on! That, and getting paid time off work. No complaints!

What I love most about this season is that everyone just acts more civilized. The office is a bit slower paced so that gives me a chance to just connect with people and just thank them for helping me during the year.

A thing to make this holyday season more special is, as for me, always to prepare the packages of Christmas gifts for some neighbors in need. For the last seven years, I have been doing this not only for them but also for myself because it reminds me that I can still make someone happy. Smiley Very Happy
