Favorite Things – All Wrapped Up!

As the beloved Maria in the Sound of Music sang, “These are a few of my favorite things”.

The Christmas season is such a wonderful time.  I always try to make it as long as possible by putting up and decorating our tree right after Thanksgiving and leaving it up until Twelfth Night. In thinking about why this season is so much a favorite, I realize that it is because I see so much joy expressed and why not have Christmas every day of the year by expressing as much joy as we are able every day?

I love everything about Christmas, including the wrapping of numerous presents.  As we have mentioned before, Costco is the best place to buy your wrapping material.  They have wonderful wired ribbon and some great papers.  In fact, if you have not already purchased it, run to Costco.  I know the one near me still has quite a good selection left.

Make sure you are enjoying every little bit of this Christmas season and if you find yourself getting stressed about how much you still have to do, stop a minute and think about what the season is really about…….LOVE!  Joy soon follows!
