Christmas is coming, other holidays for other faiths, and many religious and secular celebrations are upon us!


Give a list *here* of your favorite things about the holidays, anything from being off school to sharing time with loved ones.


Favorite things *only* -- a challenge for some I know, as there are many stressors that accompany this time of year.

December comes as a reminder to me regarding religion. I am Christian, and it is amazing how often I "forget". I tend to get emotional and mushy in a positive way near the holidays. Also most people seem to be a tad nicer and more courteous at this time of year ;)

My most favorite thing is having the four of us together,
As the boys are older it's not always so simple to do anymore.
However at this holiday we are & I love it :)

A piazza is a square, and the way cities in Italy are built there are a lot of squares! This particular square was huge (it was supposed to be the main city square when Florence was ever briefly the capital of Italy), and they'd have one of those wonderful old-style carousels on one corner. Unfortunately, I was never able to get a good photo :-(

My favorite things about the holidays is just being with family and friends.

My DH and I go to his parents house with our cats and spend christmas there. I help his mom with baking, cleaning and what ever else needs to be done.. And we also usually play some games.


It's all just about being together!

I love seeing all the Christmas lights -- I am kind of like a little kid when the lights start going up on the houses all around. And music is an important part of Christmas, too.
