17 of my favorite things to do at Christmas time!

~ Put up Christmas lights. I always put them up on my trees and the headboard of my bed. 

~ For the past couple years I have sent Christmas cards, but this one I didn't. I lost my list of people during the move.  

~ I work at a store located in the mall so I'll wander outside the store and look at the Christmas decorations.

~ This year I wanted to make your own advent calendar, but never got around to doing it. I couldn't figure out what kind of calendar to make this year.

~ Decorate your Christmas tree. I always leave my trees up year round in my bedroom. The ornaments go off, but the light's stay on and are used year round.

~ I keep the radio on all the time when I'm home and Christmas music is always playing. I have some downloaded on my MP3 player as well. 

~ Decorate the house with decorations. I love making Christmas chains and snowflakes to hang in the windows and around the tree. I also decorate my desk as well. (see photo)

~ Watch The Christmas Chronicles with Kurt Russel as Santa! (My NEW must-have Christmas movie!)

~ I have a coffee/hot cocoa bar in my bedroom year round. 

~ Put up  a nativity scene. I have two up in my bedroom. 

~ I always buy myself some socks that are soft and fuzzy and wear those on my Christmas Day pajama day! 

~ I hang stocking and stuff them as I buy the stocking stuffers. There's only adults in my house so they don't look. lol

~ I always watch the Queen’s speech. I am a HUGE fan of the British Royal Family. The Christmas messages have been taking place since 1932.

~ I light a candle and then sit down to write up a list of things and people that I'm grateful for. 

~ I always have eggnog! I use it in my coffee a lot. 

~ I put together a Christmas gift tin for myself that I start in January. Then come December 25th I open it up. Half the time I have forgotten what I put in there. lol. There British sweets, gift cards, holiday stationary and pens and other items. Then come Christmas Day I open it up and enjoy what's in it.

~ Drive around to look at the lights. There are a few neighborhood that have amazing light shows and all of the houses are decorated.
