I like the time off to do things at a slower pace and make good food and things for my family.
Malena says
I love when my boys come home and we can be all together and then comes the food! We all love to eat and I love to cook for them.
Brandy Noody says
I love it all! We start each year by putting up the tree and watching Christmas Vacation! It always makes me laugh, even after all these years!
Leann says
I guess my favorite part now is having all my family together – with kids growing up and leaving the ‘nest’ it is nice when they all come back to celebrate together!
Susan Haut says
have always dreamed of having one, but budget will never allow a want!!!!!

Oops forgot the most important part……spending time with family with all our traditions!!!!!

I love the spirit of the holidays … The smiles, the sharing, the good desserts 😉

I love the music, the decorations, the snow, and family! Especially when family from far away comes home.

I love it all! This year, the best part was when my 18 month old saw the first decorations of the season, and said in hushed awe, “Oh, wow!”
Anne Bullock says
i love the FOOD, lots of it.
sharon taylor says
My favorite thing about Christmas is watching how excited my great-grandchildren got with all the decorations and presents.

I look forward to my daughter coming home most of all
V. Stoen says
I love the sleigh rides and jingle bells !
Lisa says
Getting to visit family; and the decorations, especially lights and natural pine
Nancy Shreve says
Baking and all the lingering smells… cinnamon, peppermint, freshly grated nutmeg, and citrus. The reward at the end is a warm cookie(s) and a mug of mulled cider. Heaven.
Christine says
We enjoy the season of Christmas for what it truly is: The birth of the Christ Child.
Of course family and wonderful food and time spent together are memories forever.
Molly says
Love celebrating the birth of Jesus, the getting together of family, and lots of traditional Christmas cookies & candies!

I love making treats for my coworkers.

I love the warm fuzziness that the nostalgic music brings and doing christmas-y crafts with my little guy.
Kiki C says
It’s the JOY of being at this time of year, the birth of our Savior, the celebration of life, the happiness of family and friends, the peace of sharing with each other!
Peggy says
I love visiting my family and cousins every holiday. My mother had 5 siblings and they all still live in the same town—a good portion of my cousins still do too, and so do I. For Christmas we visit the last few Aunts that are left and see all the cousins. We eat Polish cookies and Bohemian pastries and drink secret recipe Tom and Jerry’s (from my godmother) and catch up. I have been doing this all my life, and my husband of 30 years says one of the reasons he married me was to get in with my family!!
Carolyn Paul says
I love the music, the smells, the sense of love and wonder…
Jodi Bassett says
The music…for sure. But the food is always awesome, too!
Samantha says
I love learning new recepies to make with family and friends.
Beth.. wa2bz says
For our family, Christmas is the celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ, and the hope and joy that this brings. All of us laughing and sharing memories of past Christmas’.
