Getting into the Christmas spirit once December hits is so fun, from the decorations to the winter scents and Christmas pajamas.
It brings family together, like most holidays of course but something about Christmas just brings joy all around.
What excites me the most is seeing all the lights, decorations and the cozy feeling of being in Pjs with hot coco, and watching Christmas movies with loved ones.
Normally every year for Christmas, my family and I get together, cook a big breakfast the day of then open our gifts together the next day.
But after reflecting on this last Christmas, I decided that I want Christmas next year to be different and something we don’t normally do. Gifts are not what make Christmas, family is, gifts are just a plus. What I’ve realized is that being with family is what makes it all better, getting into the Christmas spirit with loved ones is what its all about.
For example:
Take professional pictures in Christmas attire
Go ice skating as a family
Bake more desserts in Christmas theme
Do more of (DYI decorations)
Do Secret Santa
Play family games
Throw a family Christmas party or the traditional “ugly sweater” party
Its always good to have family traditions but its also good to add new things into perspective.
Let’s try and add something new into the holidays next year!
