What about the Holidays are you looking forward to???
Original post by Johnny&Maur
Though I would ask an upbeat, happy question to even out my serious post from earlier :)
I am one of those dorks who gets excited when they see chirstmas stuff in the stores or hears music on the radio!! I absolutely love the holidays and fall into a slight depression when they are over (sort of joking about that!!)
I'll start...
I LOVE giving presents. No joke. I am at my happiest when I take time to buy something for someone I care about and making them happy.
One more thing...the food. Turkey, cookies, fattening stuff nonstop from late Nov through late December...gotta love it

Lilqtny...I'm sorry that he is in Iraq
Hopefully that won't be for long...my little brother leaves for Iraq soon as far as I know, and I am a wreck over it.
Don't be sad..just think of when he comes home and you can celebrate then :)

PRESENTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am a huge baby when it comes to presents... I do like giving them and watching people open, but I really like getting them... I regress to about a 4 year old at this time! Even the smallest, littlest nothing makes me happy! I love getting up on Christmas morning to open presents...its kind of a buzzkill when its all over.
I also like all the lights - it makes it less wintery and gloomy for a few weeks.

I love shopping & giving gifts. Recieving them too but I really do enjoy giving. I LOVE being with my family and friends. I love my friends annual Christmas party..we have such a great time!! I also love that we get vacation for Thanksgiving (thurs & fri) and we also get Christmas week. I actually counted the calendar today (14 more working days) until Thanksgiving break!! Let the shopping begin!! I get to shop for my new nephew this year too!!

I'm looking forward to seeing houses all lit up and hearing Christmas music for the first time. I'm also looking forward to my first holiday season as a wife!

I'm most looking forward to the holidays this year being a WIFE and being on our own as a married couple.
It will be hard being away from my family though...it's a first in 27 years!
