Of course there are a lot of events potentially happening at your local churches, but we also know there a lot of events not happening this year because of Covid-19.
So, what are some other ways to make the holidays special with your special someone or your little ones?
I think I’ll save that for a December Bucket List post. ;) Check back here on Monday for that!
Psst: I’ve been sharing all kinds of gift guides already as well as holiday outfit ideas. If you missed them, make sure to check them out!
Keeping with the merriment…
Mine is Christmas Vacation and I know I mention it all the time. Or at least I feel like I do. While I adore so many Christmas movies like: Elf, Four Christmases, Fred Claus, Frosty the Snowman, A Christmas Movie, A Christmas Carol, Love Actually, etc., I have a partiality to Christmas Vacation. Not only do certain aspect of Clark W. Griswald remind me of my dad, but we grew up watching it over and over and my dad would laugh so much! Its become nostalgic for me, in addition to me thinking the movie is amusing of course. ;)
*If you missed my holiday printables post - go back and snag them. I created some fun freebies for you to use over the holiday season.
