Whether you're in a new relationship or have been with someone for a long time, the holidays add a specialness to your relationship that you just don't feel any other time of the year.

It's cold out, what's more fun than wrapping your arms around each other to stay warm?

No need for jackets, just my man.

Sipping hot chocolate (with whipped cream, of course) together

It's cold! Pass the hot chocolate!

Singing Christmas classics together

Cue some "Frosty the Snowman" and "Rocking Around the Christmas Tree!"

Seeing a Christmas show or movie together

What is the holiday season without some Christmas movies?

Watching childhood holiday shows together and him wiping the tear from your face when Frosty melts

You know you don't wanna admit it, but you do shed a tear. We promise he won't let you bawl.

Driving around looking at holiday lights together

Who needs to go pay to see fancy light displays? Just go drive around the neighborhood to see the fancy lights.

Wearing matching ugly sweaters

They may be ugly, but you both can be ugly together!

Kissing under the mistletoe

This may or may not be an excuse to find mistletoe everywhere.

Christmas shopping in the huge crowds

Going to visit Santa together just to get a candy cane

Although you aren't five, you can still go for the candy cane.

Guys may be difficult to buy gifts for, but you know that you just will find that perfect gift to make him smile.

You didn't realize the glisten of lights can make someone look even more perfect.

Dressing up for holiday parties

You both can look cutesy cute all dressed up together!

Baking together and feeding each other the yummy cookies you made

Sugar cookies, chocolate chip and more. They could be the worst tasting if you mess them up, but it just matters that you made them with him.

Attending midnight mass together

Yes, you both aren't the best at going to church, but mass before Christmas is a must.

Watching his face when he opens your gift

He loves it! Just as you expected!

Opening his gift — which is breathtaking — but secretly thinking that he is the best gift you could ever ask for

Very true. He is all you want!

Falling asleep in each others arms after being stuffed from eating Christmas dinner together

Naps, food and love is basically what your holiday break will consist of.

Ringing in the new year together with the best kiss as the clock strikes midnight and then promising to do it all over again for years to come

Ah, the midnight kiss! All couples wait so long for the kiss that rings in the New Year. No one knows what it is, but something just makes it perfect.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
