Christmas

I know many people don't want to face it, but Christmas is just around the corner. Thanksgiving is nearly 2 weeks away, and right after that starts the 25 days of Christmas movie marathon. Many people are Scrooges and say the time flies by after Thanksgiving, but me on the other hand, I cannot wait. Black Friday, Saint Nick's, and Christmas Eve are all things I'm so ready for.

Recently, I bought a tiny little Christmas tree, complete with ornaments and colorful lights. Although I've been temped to set it up for the past three weeks, I know it's too early for that. I can't help but want to celebrate Christmas 365 days of each and every year. Something about driving around town and seeing the lights just excites me. The ringing of bells, the glowing of Christmas trees in windows, and the buzz of holiday shoppers are something I cannot get enough of. In fact, I just started purchasing presents for my loved ones. I absolutely cannot wait to start wrapping. 

Am I the only one who wishes that there would be holiday movies on 24/7? I love turning on TV and seeing bows and lights and trees. I hate the people who complain about how Christmas is coming too fast and how they have no time to shop. I believe everyone should enjoy the holidays and realize that it's not about the presents or the wrapping, its about the love people share.

Christmas- PLEASE come faster! I cannot wait to spend time with my loved ones nestled close to a fire as Christmas music plays in the background.
