Top 10 Things I Love About the Holidays


I'm back!! Well, sort of... I'll keep posting on our Shutterfly website etc. But I've been wanting to type more on Blogspot as well. So now I have two sites. :)

Top 10 Things I Love About the Holidays: ( I tried to narrow it down)
10. My 1983 Amy Grant Christmas Album
9. Displaying my Grinch collection. (From pens to ornaments, glasses to hats. Sophi even has a Grinch t-shirt)
8. Baking sugar cookies with my mom.
7. Freezing the sugar cookies and enjoying them well into the new year.
6. All the stores are decorated.. stores have great deals!!
5. Cheesy Christmas movies on the Hallmark Channel and the Lifetime Channel.
4. Peppermint flavored anything! Peppermint mochas, icecream, cookies. YUM! YUM! YUM!
3. Watching Deric put over 1500 lights on our Christmas tree.
2. Being with my family doing all the traditions- going to see Christmas lights, baking, wrapping gifts, singing Christmas carols, eating stew and homemade biscuits on Christmas Eve, watching White Christmas on Christmas Eve, watching Sophi open gifts. Furthermore, excited to start new traditions with Sophi. I gave her my Nativity scene I had when I was a kid. I also like reading her some Christmas books. :) (Max Lucado ones truly warm my heart. :) )
I can't wait to till she understands what the Nativity scene is and why we celebrate Christmas.

1. Watching Sophi stare at the tree in awe of all the lights! :) Seriously so cute, it's priceless.
