Watching children at this time of year.. it's just so magic.. they get so excited about getting presents and Santa coming for a visit.. I love the Christmas program the children put on for church.. The songs , candlelight service and the genuine love of Baby Jesus.. Putting out the nativity scene under my tree. This year giving Ben a nativity scene and watching him give baby Jesus a kiss.

Oh, I love the shoes on New Years - what a fun idea.
I love Hilton Head. how fun that you were there on Christmas :-)
I like it when you said, "as long as I am with my family I don't care where I am (for Christmas)".....I agree! Wonderful learning more about you:))
all your favorites are mine too! Probably the best is Christmas Eve service when I finally set down and allow myself to enjoy the reason for the season. I'd never heard the shoes on New Years Eve, sounds like a good idea to me!
I love this list! It's let me get to know you just a bit better!! We have some of the same favorites!! One in particular is the movie "The Christmas Story." As I write this, it's playing on the TV's here in my office where I work...Thanks to me, its been on all morning, hearing 'stuck-stuck-stuck!!!' never gets old, at least not to me!!
Enjoy your day!!!
...a nice insight into your christmas!
