Christmas Season

December has finally arrived, which means Christmas is coming.  Christmas is probably one of my favorite holidays.  It is one holiday where a majority of people celebrate and decorate their homes.  At my house, we have a Christmas tree along with a train surrounding it.  We put up a few decorations throughout our living room including a manger scene in the front window.

One thing I really enjoy about the holiday decorating is the light displays.  Many people decorate their houses and many parks put up a display.  Every year my family walks through a path decorated in a variety of lights.  Organizations can enter their individual display into a contest for the chance to win a prize when the competition is officially over.  It’s always interesting to see the creativity and time put into the unique displays. 

With Christmas coming, finals are approaching and the semester will be ending.  I am excited to finish the semester and spend a little time with family.  Christmas is a great time to catch up with family and friends while enjoying the holiday atmosphere.  In addition, I love the Christmas cookies that only get baked once a year.  Overall, I love the various aspects of the holiday season and cannot wait to be home again for Christmas.

    I am also so excited for Christmas! My favorite part is getting to decorate my house both inside and out. My dad always decorates the outside making our house the brightest on the block. One of my favorite traditions is on our way home from our Christmas Eve service we drive around the neighborhoods looking at the lights.
    Merry Christmas!

    I couldn't agree with you more. I love driving through neighborhoods and looking at their Christmas lights. Even though we still have to make it through finals week, Christmas is almost here. I hope you enjoy your time home and are able to relax and spend time with friends and family.

  3. Celine, Christmas is such a joyful time of the year. It's all about family and spending time with those you love. It's also probably one of my favorite holidays. But maybe that's because I know the semester is almost over, haha! You know once it gets to these last couple of weeks it's so hard to stay focused when we know what's coming once we're done. I can't wait to see my family, this is probably the only time of year we ALL get together. I agree with you about the light displays, I think it's so cool to drive around and see all the beautiful lights. I hope you have a Merry Christmas!
