It's almost the most wonderful time of the year!!

YEA!! I can't wait untill the most wonderful time of the year is here! We're almost there! I love the smells if winter...the Christmas trees, the peppermint, snow, candles, cookies (yum, yum!), food and everything else that goes with Christmas!! I love trying to think of presents to fit each of my friends and family's unique personalities (even though this is terribly hard!). I really love wrapping presents, and then seeing the person getting the present's face when they open it (that is one of the best things!). I love going to church on Christmas weekend, and singing Christmas carols, and seeing everyone's Christmas outfits! I love going sledding and going over big jumps, and then wiping out! I love going home after sledding with friends and having hot chocolate with giant marshmallows! I love opening presents. I love going shopping with Erika for gifts for my friends and family. I love making jewelry for presents. I love everything about Christmas! I love celebrating Jesus' birth! The only two things that I don't like is having to clean out Snoopy's cage in the snow, and how this world today always tries to take Jesus out of Christmas. It's quite sad how some store emploies aren't even allowed to say "Merry Christmas", they have to say "Happy Holidays." It is sad.

I love all those things too! I love when your out in the snow, and ur fingers are freezing and you nose is cold and you come in and make some soup, put on a christmas movie and sit on the couch next to the Christmas tree and get all warm and snuggly. Or on a nice winter night when you watch a movie or when its snowing out and you make cookies in the kitchen and you can see the snow out the window. I love planning my Christmas outfit to wear on the last day of school B4 break where everything down to my socks are red and green (Even my hair =]) And Its so sad...how Jesus is always taken out of it...so

MERRY CHRISTMAS!
