7 Things I love About Christmas

 Hey y'all! Merry Christmas to all (Throws out candy canes and peppermints)! I hope you are having a wonderful December. I decided to list some of the things I love about Christmas. This is only a small percentage of everything I love about the season. So let's get on with it, shall we?

   1. Gingerbread houses

I just realized I missed the A in Gingerbread, but I'm to lazy to go back and fix it #hermitslife. I love decorating and eating gingerbread houses! I also like to go see gingerbread house displays. We went last year and there were so many amazing ones. I think I posted a picture a few posts back.

    2. The lights

I love going through neighborhoods and looking at the gorgeous light setups. Though some people get a little out of hand. I don't like those inflatable reighndeer, Santas, and Olafs, however. Those things are creepy and don,t look that great on lawns.

     

    3. The presents

Duh. Who deosn't like getting new and awesome stuff? Maybe someone crazy, like Scrooge, but he deosn't count. I asked for so much stuff this year, I had to cut off, like, five things. I also like making and giving gifts. I've made almost all of my family gifts. I still have to figure out what to make for my dad. One of my brothers saw his gift, so I just went ahead and gave it to him. Now I have to think about something new.

  

       4. The music

Christmas music is probably just about my all time favorite thing about Christmas. I'm not talking about songs like Jingle Bells and Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree.I'm talking about music like Silent Night and Hallelujah. Now that's some beautiful music.

                        

   5. Christmas breakfast

Aaaaaaaah, breakfast. My favorite meal of the day. Christmas breakfast is especially delicious. Bacon, eggs, donuts, sausage, cinnamon rolls, berry syrup, pancakes, a variety of fruit, ect. It's always awesome to eat something like that after the exausting and exhilarating experience of opening presents.

   
    6. Candycanes

  PEPPERMINT!!!!!!!!!!! SO GOOD! That refreshing, spicy, sweet, umami taste in your mouth is always the best. ALWAYS. Candycanes are a must eat during the holidays, most appropriately in hot chocolate (your stomach works too, though ;})

 7. Nutcrackers

    I don't know why I like nutcrackers so much. Some people say they're creepy, but I think they,re enchanting. Maybe it's the fact that they come in so many colors, or maybe it's because the ballet made me like them more. Whatever the reason, I think they make wonderful decor and buddies.

I hope you guys enjoyed that post! And remember, the Christmas season isn't all about decorations and presents. It is about worshipping our Saviour, Jesus Christ. We should not let all the new toys and books get in the way of that. 

Happy Christmas ;)
