December is my most favorite month of the year. Probably helps that all the best things come in December--Christmas, my birthday, New Years Eve, flying home to see the family and friends, and even a bit of snow now and then. I already have a laundry list of things to-do this month, but wanted to add a few things to take in and pass along the spirit of this most amazing month.
Some I have already checked off, but here this is my to-do list for the end of the year!
1. Decorate for Christmas (check)
2. Sip hot toddies with friends--maybe try out this new recipe
3. Wrapping presents (and finishing shopping for them)
4. Look at holiday lights. In Washington, the include the White House Christmas Tree and Capitol Christmas Tree
5. Birthday dinner at one of my favorite restaurants!
6. Baking Christmas treats for the office
7. A night watching Love Actually and sipping hot chocolate (check, and will do again)
8. Christmas night at the movies--I think this year we will be seeing this
9. Volunteer--give money, give time, give love (check, check and check some more)
10. Ring in the New Year with Trombone Shorty!
What are your favorite things to do this time of year? It's such a busy time for everyone, but I think it's important in the hustle and bustle of the season to remember to try to encompass the Christmas spirit throughout. It's contagious!

ReplyDeleteHow did you get tickets to Trombone Shorty on NYE?! Didn't they sell out immediately?
