'Tis the Season



I know, I know. I am about the worst blogger in the whole entire world. I can't blog during work (too busy), I can't blog after work (gym, then hungry), and then I get sleepy. Good thing New Years is coming up right? So we can make our New Year's resolutions, that I only keep for about a week! What will be on the list this year? I will have to think of more, but I want to be a better blogger for sure. I do have a lot of catching up to do.


First of all, I can't believe it is already December 15th. I seriously can't believe it. Where did the time go? I love Christmas, it is the most amazing Holiday in the world. I am also so excited to spend my first Christmas married to my wonderful husband Jason. The Holidays are so much fun with him. He get's just as excited as I do.


'Tis the Season:

1. To remember Christ's birth

2. To spend as much time with family and friends as you can

3. To serve others

4. To listen to Christmas music until your ears start to hurt

5. To go to the Michael McClean concert, and leave before you have to hold hands with random strangers and sing "we can be together forever someday"

6. To go the Cori Connors concert (and listen to her music every day)

7. To decorate your Christmas Tree

8. To buy gifts for your loved ones (OR...just take them with you, have them pick out the present, and wrap it up). There is no going wrong with that approach.

9. To avoid Black Friday

10. For work parties ( and wonderful Christmas bonuses)

11. For mistletoe

12. To watch "The Holiday" "Love Actually" "The Grinch" "Miracle on 34th Street" "Rudolph" "Frosty the Snowman" and "The Christmas Toy" "Disney Christmas" (the one with Donald Duck and the snowballs) "Christmas Vacation"

13. To give thanks

14. To sit by the fire, watch the snow fall, and sip hot cocoa

15. To play hilarious games with the family like "Game of things"

16. To see how many times we can play "Settlers" and "The Train Game"

17. To see beautiful Christmas lights and decorations

18. To eat Momma Meek's sugar cookies, carmels, amazing mix, butter cookies, fudge, the list goes on and on.

19. To believe in Santa Clause

20. To see the lights at temple square and go to "The Spaghetti Factory"

21. To slip on ice and hurt your bum

22. To sled

23. To wear cute hats, scarves, and boots

24. To avoid driving and snowbanks (I AM TALKING TO YOU MS. JENNY MEEK)

25. For Grandma Love's amazing Christmas Party

26. To watch the O.C. episode where Seth makes up his own Holiday of "Christmakkah" :)

27. To listen and sing to Adam Sandler's Hanakah song.

28. For comfy and cute pajamas.

29. To read old Christmas stories you used to read as a kid.

30. To set up the village.

31. To set cookies out for Santa.

32. For love, laughter, and joy.


These are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. It is a whole month or two that makes me feel happy, joyful, and thankful most of the time. 'Tis the season to be jolly!
