I really was going to try and wait until after Thanksgiving to post about Christmas decor and preparations, but here it is, November 16, and I'm giving in. While I love Christmas, its actually the days leading up to Christmas that I love and cherish the most. Something about the season and it's joyfulness just warm my heart. For me, December 1st, December 15th, and December 24 are all equally magical. In fact, I often get slightly sad as Christmas nears because I start to realize that the days of Christmas joy are limited. The reason for the season is not lost on me, yet I can't help but give thanks for all my blessings during the Christmas season, particularly the group of friends and family that surround me and make life so sweet. With that in mind, I do my best to make the Christmas season, not just the 25th of December, extra special for the people I love. This without a doubt stems from my own childhood, where my mom made a point to stretch the magic of Christmas for all of December. She had (and still has) an awesome ability to make every occasion special, and of course, the holiday season is no different. So as much as I wanted to wait till December to start prepping, I don't think its in my genes to wait that long. So watch over the next several weeks, as we celebrate this magical season together. I'm going to blog about various ways I make the holiday special, with several tips and tricks that will be friendly to your wallet and your watch. Christmas season, here I come!
