My Top Ten Reasons why I love Christmas!

I love Christmas, and here are ten reasons why....
1. Buying gifts for John, Jenna and Alyssa (and the rest of my family, too...I guess!)
2. Seeing Alyssa pull Santa's beard and watching the scared look on Jenna's face-At least she didn't cry this year...much!!
3. Decorating....I love to decorate the tree. This year, I loved watching Jenna put on all of the ornaments, and she kept asking for another "duration" or decoration! Next year, I will have two trees!
4. Christmas lights on the house-This is the first year we have had outside lights, and I love them!
5. Making my grandma Reid's sugar cookie recipe-I can't wait to make them for the first time this year with Jenna and Alyssa! My mom and I used to make them every year together!
6. Christmas breakfast with my mom, grandma and uncle-a family tradition!
7. Spending Christmas day with family
8. Going to the Columbus Zoo and seeing the lights and animals-my favorite winter activity!
9. Giving gifts and watching others open their presents. This is one time I do actually love to give rather than receive!
10. Of course, celebrating Christ's birthday!

    Good list! I almost forgot about the zoo lights!!!!!! We have had some real nice weather to go to the zoo, too! I might just have to go this weekend if the weather holds out! And buying for the kids - that is just the best and most fun part of all!!!!!!!! :) Jenna will be a blast this year!!!! You will have to video her!!!! :)
