It's November 11th and I'm sitting on my couch listening to Christmas music. Yeah, yeah I know it's early! We're learning Christmas dances at my dance studio right now so it has gotten me in a "Christmasy" mood. My favorite song is That's Christmas to me by Pentatonix. I don't know why but I LOVE it! My question for this post is What is Christmas to you?
I will admit that I can get very annoyed with family around Christmas time but I have to keep in mind the true meaning of Christmas. It's more than Christmas carols, gift giving, and cookie baking. It;s more than the Christmas cups at Starbucks (Which are plain red now... what?!?!). I love fall and winter so naturally this is my favorite time of year. I get to see my cousin who is also my best friend. Christmas to me is about celebrating the birth of Christ. A lot of people get carried away with having the best Christmas decorations or the biggest tree or giving the best presents that they forget what the true meaning of Christmas really is.
