It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas =)

It's the most wonderful time of the year!!! and I am definately feeling the holiday spirit.  My family and I are hoping to decorate the tree this weekend.  My dad was very sick but is starting to finally feel better which means we can get to work.  Last year around the holidays my grandfather passed away unfortunately so it was a rough Christmas and Thanksgiving.  We didn't even decorate the house or put up a tree.  I miss him alot especially at this time of year because it was his favorite.  
I love holiday baking - some cookies out of the box and others homemade from scratch traditions with my mom.  I also always watch Christmas movies.  My all time favorites are National Lampoons Christmas Vacation and Home Alone.  I also like Home Alone 2, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, and The Santa Clause.  What are some movies you guys like? Have you begun the shopping yet?  The malls extended their hours to 11 pm every night and its becoming mayhem over there.

  1. I love to bake too. I go to the local pizzerias to get pizza boxes to keep my cookies in before I make trays to give out during the holiday. I also love the holiday movies too. The one I love the most is A Christmas Carol with Alistair Sims. A classic! Make a nice cup of hot cocoa, a blanket and enjoy!
