Every year I start decorating and getting into the Christmas mood too early and I end up being over the holidays before they actually begin.... so this year I am waiting until December 1st to do anything holiday related. I tried to come up with 25 things I wanted to do during the month but ended up with only 20, which is good enough ;)
Here is my Christmas bucket list for 2013:
1. Bake cookies.
2. Read Christmas books to Mason.
3. Watch Christmas movies!!
4. Drink hot chocolate in festive jammies.
5. Cut down our Christmas tree and decorate it.
6. Make a Christmas play list and put it on repeat :)
7. Host an Ugly Christmas Sweater party.
8. Drive around and look at all the lights.
9. Take Mason to see Santa!
10. Go Christmas "shopping" to watch everybody run around like crazy.
11. Make a festive Christmas morning breakfast.
12. Decorate Mason's room/the rest of the house.
13. Make family ornaments to hang on Christmas Eve.
14. Kiss under the mistletoe... awww
15. Go ice skating... aka get Joel to pull me around.
16. Do a random act of kindness for somebody I don't know.
17. Wrap all my gifts in one sitting.... ah.
18. Watch ABC's 25 Days of Christmas!
19. Do a Christmas photoshoot with Mason.
20. Try a new Pinterest idea for my Christmas Eve Party!
I'll let ya know how I make out! Hopefully by waiting until December the Christmas spirit stays with me a little longer this year!! I know Mason is too young to know what is going on, but I'm already so much more excited! :-)
Update: We did all but three things... we had full intentions of doing these things, but we spent the Christmas without any power... so we did not get the chance! Hopefully next year will be a lot better :)
