- Praising God for the real reason we celebrate this season.
- Getting together with Family and Friends
- Yummy foods - appetizers, meals, desserts...
- Giving gifts to those I love - I don't expect any in return - I just love giving...
- Christmas Music...radio stations that only play Christmas music.
- Christmas lights - driving around looking at all the beautiful decorations (the boys love it too, they are sad when one has more on the other side then they have on theirs).
- Celebrating the wonderful gifts God has given me because it is also when my hubby's and boys' birthdays are...the 6th, 20th, and 26th...and HIS Son's on the 25th
- Seeing how my boys want to celebrate Jesus' Birthday this year.
- We also are celebrating our 6th anniversary this year on the 21st.
- Having an excuse to go SHOPPING!!
- Watching the delight in my boys' eyes when they open their presents.
- Receiving all the Christmas cards from loved ones - especially pictures - all cards go on my entryway closet until after the holiday season...any pictures stay on it all year until I am ready to start getting the new ones for the year. (I'll have to do a WW on it after Christmas!).
- Rejoicing for another year of God's blessings and praying for another year of God's graces.
Isn't Christmas - "The most wonderful time of the year!"

Strangely, Christmas is not my favorite time of the year, though what the season should stand for is precious to me, I hate what Christmas has become for so many people.
So many things to be thankful for! I love Christmas time, too! ~especially with kids!
You have an award waiting for you on my site...come see here
I tried to leave a comment this morning, but something malfunctioned. Oh well. I was just going to say that it was a great idea for a TT...and I wish I'd thought of it first!
Your first one is definitely the number one reason to love this holiday. I also love sending and receiving Christmas cards! I guess that's why I so picky when it comes to finding the right ones! Happy TT!

Hi, cool list! I agree with all of those things! I don't send out Christmas cards though, I usually call or email. I love giving gifts to family and friends! I did a TT too, it's here: http://lifes-adventures.net
