The holiday season always seems to bring everyone together and make the air feel raw with excitement. I'm counting down the days til the twenty-fifth! It's always the time I take to relax and relieve myself from the stress I gain at school. You get to go shopping, decorate the tree, make-and eat-tons of cookies... Getting gifts is always nice, too. I get to go see Santa this weekend. :) It's when I feel the happiest and brightest. Everything seems homey around Christmas time. Lights are up and boots are being worn. I love the colors and the snow. I don't mind the cold if it means we'll have a white Christmas. Snow just makes the whole experience better.
My family and I are always brought closer through out this season. We laugh more, and we spend a lot of time together. It has been a hard time for my family so far this year, so I'm hoping we will be able to put the depressing things happening aside and enjoy the new year. My dad deserves the best holiday.
