jarerice Posted August 27, 2007 Posted August 27, 2007 I love looking at the lights. And seeing the kids eyes light up when they first wake up.
pastasalad Posted August 27, 2007 Posted August 27, 2007 ohhhh i love looking at the lights, sitting in front of the fire watching Christmas Movies,wrapping presents,Putting up the tree, The smell of dressing/stuffing baking, oh shoot I LOVE everything about the Holidays
llist Posted August 27, 2007 Posted August 27, 2007 I love the lights even though my dh won't put any on our house. Thinking back on my childhood that was such a magical thing. Driving down the street and seeing all the houses decorated. I have to admit that last year only a handful were actually decorated in our entire neighborhood this year! I also love to see others open the gifts that I've given them. I take a lot of time and try to find just the perfect unexpected item that they would never ask for but secretly want!
christib327 Posted August 27, 2007 Posted August 27, 2007 My favorite part is watching people open gifts too. I work hard trying to come up with stuff that they would really like and it's fun to see their faces.
lennon2004 Posted August 27, 2007 Posted August 27, 2007 I love buying people gifts. :) I also love seeing my family, and that will be even moreso this year since I've moved for college.
Christy Garner Posted August 27, 2007 Posted August 27, 2007 I love putting lights on the house, decorating the inside, putting up the tree, wrapping presents and watching everyone open their presents - seeing the excitement on their face. I like to open mine last as I enjoy watching everyone else.
bigjimslade Posted August 27, 2007 Posted August 27, 2007 BF on Gottadeal.com!!! I like being with family and friends, the xmas music and some volunteer projects I am involved in.
nick_jenni_jocelyn Posted August 28, 2007 Posted August 28, 2007 I love setting up the tree, looking at lights, seeing my DD's face light up. this year with my DS it will be even more special, even though its technically not his first christmas, to me it really is.
sm1kla Posted August 28, 2007 Posted August 28, 2007 The holiday lights and the look of amazement on kids faces.
JazzMama Posted August 28, 2007 Posted August 28, 2007 I love: (1) sleeping under the Christmas tree (2) Christmas music (3) watching DD's face light up when she sees Santa and Mrs. Claus
mandifour Posted August 28, 2007 Posted August 28, 2007 I love wrapping presents. I wrap mine and my moms, and helped my sister last years:)
dmmiller Posted August 28, 2007 Posted August 28, 2007 I love watching peoples faces when they open that gift they "really" had to have. Lights, sounds and smells of the holidays. Just a GREAT time of year.
love a deal Posted August 29, 2007 Posted August 29, 2007 Watching my kids first thing Christmas morning.
gr8girls Posted August 29, 2007 Posted August 29, 2007 I love the lights and the smells and buying gifts, but what I really love is that people seem to get along so much more during Christmas. People actually say thank you and are tolerant (except on BF), and just seem happier. That's what I enjoy. Maybe I'm nuts!
kmbrly Posted August 29, 2007 Posted August 29, 2007 Christmas tree with lots and lots and lots of lights, the multi- colored ones and at least 1 strand of twinkle ones. All the lights off, except for the tree and a cup of cider. Hmm, is it too early to put my tree up??
Bunniq Posted August 29, 2007 Posted August 29, 2007 Spending time with extended family is the number one thing, with watching my nephews open their gifts a close second.
Guest shawna6676 Posted August 29, 2007 Posted August 29, 2007 spending the day watching my babies play with their new toys and eating all day!!!!!!!
happysunshine28 Posted August 29, 2007 Posted August 29, 2007 Buying stuff for my kids. Yes they are spoiled rotten, even though they say they never get anything.
DramaQueenLucy Posted August 29, 2007 Posted August 29, 2007 Watching the kids unwrap there gifts....see this is why I make them wait to open there gifts until I have had some caffeine..
stacya Posted August 30, 2007 Posted August 30, 2007 The lights, the music, the Christmas specials on TV, and I especially love getting together on Christmas Eve with family and all of the awesome food!
cleverbffool Posted August 31, 2007 Posted August 31, 2007 Wrapping all the gifts, I try to make each one look as if it was professionally wrapped, the holiday scents and the time with family and friends.
droolbug2 Posted August 31, 2007 Posted August 31, 2007 pretty much everything about the holidays...shopping for presents, wrapping the presents, all the lights and decorations, Christmas trees. Nothing beats seeing how my kids faces light up when they see what Santa left!
ohitsunshine Posted September 16, 2007 Posted September 16, 2007 EVERYTHING. I love the shopping, I love sending cards, I love wrapping, decorating, baking cookies, buying great gifts, family time...even coffee in my bathrobe at 4 am Christmas Morning. Actually, I started planning our Christmas card picture today...lol
doublehsmom Posted September 17, 2007 Posted September 17, 2007 I love almost everything about the holidays, I think that everyone is happier,more friendly, the snow makes things for peaceful, the christmas songs, and seeing everyone in the family that I normally don't get to see threw the year.
cmattison Posted September 17, 2007 Posted September 17, 2007 In my family, I'm the youngest of 8 and I have a huge extended family. Not all of us make it home every Christmas, but most of us do. I love to be with all of my family and the craziness of all the kids running around excited about what they got from Santa. Our tradition is to get up the next morning, pack the new toys in the van and drive to Pigeon Forge TN to a cabin that we have rented. It is a beautiful part of the country and we get to spend quality time with the kids.
txmomma Posted September 17, 2007 Posted September 17, 2007 The holiday lights and the look of amazement on kids faces.
cotinkandy1 Posted September 17, 2007 Posted September 17, 2007 I have so many things I really enjoy.....but seeing the smiles on my children faces all through the holiday season is precious.....decorating, baking with them, singing christmas songs, and of course the presents.
mgmckny Posted September 17, 2007 Posted September 17, 2007 I love the smell of cookies baking, hot cocoa, good hot coffee, the lights, the packages. I like to go out driving and looking at the lights. My MIL can't drive at night anymore so we picked her up last year and went out a few days before Christmas. I got Starbucks for me (no one else wanted it and I know, in NE Florida it's not really cold, but I can dream...) and had the radio on low on a station w/ 24 hour Christmas music. We had a blast and I'm already planning another tour of the city!
aintstupid Posted September 18, 2007 Posted September 18, 2007 I love decorating my house, baking cookies with my kids and family, the snow-if we get any- wrapping presents, the countdown to christmas, my kids get sooooo excited, Opening presents, family get togethers even though my sister's fiancee passed away 2 yrs ago during Christmas....so sad, he was only 23, so we will hold a candlelight vigil for Eric.
