holiday season

i just love this time of year. it all starts with halloween which has been one of my favorite holidays eveery since i can remember, i love scary movies, haunted houses, dressing up and trick or treating and the kids and i really have a blast each year doing all that we can fit in our schedules. i just love it. then comes thanksgiving and since im an eater and i love good food its an awesome time also, i love being able to get together with all my family and enjoy awesome food and conversation. and then comes the best of all christmas. i love christmas and even though i know its not about the gifts and is about the birth of Jesus christ, i still love nothing more than to buy the people i love gifts that i know they will love. i enjoy watching them open presents...the excitement on my childrens faces come christmas morning is something that i look forward to all year long. it brings joy into my heart. having these times and holidays where all family can come together and enjoy time with each other is very important and very special to me...i just sure wish my grandparents were still here to be with us also during these times.
