crazy about christmas.

Now that Thanksgiving has come and gone and it’s socially acceptable to talk about Christmas, let’s chat for a second.  You see, I’m obsessed with Christmas.  I can’t tell you when exactly this infatuation began but my Christmas spirit has been amplified for several years now and it only seems to be growing.

I love having a tree sparkling in the corner of my living room.  I love Christmas music.  I love gift giving and take Christmas shopping very, very seriously.  I love carefully choosing a wrapping theme each year (although I hate the actual wrapping part).  I love the cookie baking, from old favorites to trying out new recipes that have caught my eye.  I love forcing my dogs to sit still so I can take photos of them in front of the Christmas tree.  I. love. it. all.

Welcome to the most wonderful time of the year!  Are you Christmas crazy like I am?  What are you looking forward to the most about this holiday season?
