Now that it is November and we have had a beautiful first snow I am feeling in the Christmas mood! Since winter is soooo looooong here, I've decided to make a holiday bucket list, and another winter bucket list in January...because those are always the hardest months!
Here goes - an anticipation list towards my favourite holiday of the year!
- Host a party
- Pick out a fresh Christmas tree
- Decorate the house (inside and out) for Christmas
- Plant an amaryllis or paperwhites
- Bake cookies
- Bring treats to the neighbours
- Look at Christmas lights
- Watch my traditional favourite Christmas movies
- Take time to enjoy gift shopping and wrapping
- Listen to all of my favourite Christmas music, and maybe find a new album or two
- Drink lots of tea and try out Starbucks' seasonal coffees
- Pack a shoebox to send away
- Try out fun Christmas gathering games like these
- Convince my husband to do the "12 Dates of Christmas" idea
- Go out snowshoeing or cross country skiing, if there is enough snow!
- Enjoy celebrating the season with friends and family for its real reason
Looks like I will be busy over the next two months!
