GALLERIE ME!
I’m most looking forward to seeing my son’s reaction to the Christmas festivities, like the lights, tree, decorations and presents. He’ll be turning two in January, and he’s at such an amazing age where any “new” experience just fascinates him.

GALLERIE ME!
I am looking forward to visiting my parents in their new house over the holidays–they are moving in a few weeks and will be within a few hours drive of us. We are thrilled since they are currently 1000+ miles away. I’ve also never visited that part of the country, so it will be nice to get to know a new place that we’ll be visiting regularly.
Lara says
Gallerie Me! I look forward to the lights and decorations the most. Every year when visiting my in-laws we go out on a couple of nights and drive around admiring all the decorated houses/yards and then cap off the evening by stopping for peppermint ice cream sundaes. Every one of my family members send pics or videos of their own houses/yards decorated for the rest to see – it helps keep us connected at this special time of year.
Melody G. says
GALLERIE ME!I think I look the most forward to the holiday decorations. I don’t have a big family and we see each other at least once a week, so holidays are really no different in that regard. The decorations however, that’s a big change. Just looking at decorations puts me in a different frame of mind and relaxes me. I love wandering around stores and malls that decorate for Christmas. Another favorite, to wander through local flower shops to see their over-the-top decorations. I started out with just one Christmas tree when I first got out on my own 17 yrs ago. I keep adding trees and decorations. :-) Currently, I’m up to 4 trees over 6′ (1 for the kids to decorate with things they’ve made; 1 in blue & white snowmen & snowflakes since I live in FL and don’t see real snow; 1 in burgundy & silver; and 1 that kinda has a candy land meets the cat in the hat theme going on). Just sitting and looking at holiday decorations calms me in a way that is hard to explain. Suffering from adult add, there are not too many things that I have found that calm me as much as looking at Christmas decorations. :-)
Kate Hubbell says

GALLERIE ME!
My favorite part of christmastime is watching the enchanting look of sheer delight in my daughter’s eyes as she comes down stairs and sees the gifts Santa has left for her.
Anna says
GALLERIE ME!!
Definitely spending time with family, and this year I’m get to spend the holidays with my entire family in England :)
Kristin says
GALLERIE ME!
My favorite part of Christmas is watching my favorite Christmas moives! I am a sap for the oldies but goodies like It’s a Wonderful Life, and the original Miracle on 34th Street, must be in Black and White! My favorite however is the musical White Christmas with Bing Crosby, Rosemary Clooney, and Danny Kaye! I’m a big musical dork!
This year my husband and I have decided to add some of the funnier off kilter Christmas movies to our cuddle up Christmas movie time. Think Gremlins and Bad Santa! If course Elf is also a must watch! It gets funnier every time I watch it! Can’t wait!
Kristen says
Gallerie me!
The decorations!
kerri says
“GALLERIE ME!” my son is coming home to visit!
Kelly says
Gallerie me! I am most looking forward to decorating this Christmas! We live in a country that does not celebrate Christmas, so the break of Christmas commercialism has been great as it has always been the reason I haven’t loved the season. Last year and again this year, we are forced to create and purposefully seek out, unique decorations. From our Christmas tree, to our ornaments and gifts. It has been a blessing!
Pamela F. says
Gallerie Me! first holiday in our new home, can’t wait to decorate AFTER Thanksgiving!
