These are a few of my favorite things....

This is a small list of that I like/love during the holidays. I will continue the list as I think of more!!
*Smell of baking pies in the oven…..yum-o!
~Hearing family and friends laugh & reminisce
*Spending time with family
~Hearing the sound of wrapping paper being crumbled and tossed by my bebies (yes, bebies, not babies, nieces and nephews)
*Watching Sadie smell all the presents to see if there is some sort of “food” type item or toy in there for her
~Watching Sadie take the gift out of a Christmas bag. Those ones that are the easiest to do, toss the gift in and put tissue paper in as well, she loves those
*Celebrating my nephews birthday….on Christmas and Sadie’s birthday, on Christmas Eve!
~Watching their faces light up when they get a gift they have wanted for so long
*Listening to them talk about how excited they are with their present
~Wrapping gifts (ones I bought and helping my mom wrap as well)
*The lights on a Christmas tree as well as ornaments
~Watching the kids decorate the tree (this coming weekend)
*Going to movies during the day (a little bit cheaper, but not much)
~Sitting by the fireplace and warming my tootsies!
*Drinking apple cider from Starbucks and hot chocolate

~Power shopping like a crazy woman ;o)
*Watching it snow, not ice, SNOW (only when we don’t have to go anywhere)
~BEING HOME!!!!!!!
