Christmas is in the Air

Christmas has got to be one of the most wonderful and awful times of the year. Here's my breakdown.

Things I hate about this season:

Thoughtless Chrismtas gifts
Too much crazy family under one roof
The haunting of Christmas' past
Claymation Christmas movies (seriously, they're creepy)

Things I LOVE about this season:

The Christmas Story
Singing Carols
Super classy yet sassy Christmas decor
Snow to slide around on (it's fun on a sled or fishtailing in your car)
A Handsome man keeping me warm when I walk outside, or anytime I pretend to be cold
Christmas lights
Awesome knee high boots
Mistletoe
Wrapping presents better than the department store
Seeing the smile on the kiddies' faces when they open the Littlest Pet Shop Puppy Palace with bonus puppies
Watching "While You Were Sleeping"
Hanging Mistletoe
Being able to eat as much junk food as I want and no one notices how fat I get, 'cuz they're getting fat too!
The smell of pine trees and cinnamon
Hearing Matt Jensen say "God bless us, everyone".
Christmas bonuses
Mistletoe Ornaments
The sound of snow crunching when I walk over it
Icicles that stretch from my roof to the ground and make excellent swords
Mistletoe and Holly
My Grandpa Clavells snowy village- only his, though
My brothers come home
Playing Christmas music on the piano
A whole sacrament meeting filled with music
Lights and Nativity at Temple Square
Using Mistletoe

I'm sure I could think of more. Hope you love this season as much as I do!
