Thanksgiving is over, and with just about a month until Christmas to go, it's time to crank those Christmas tunes up and pull out the sweaters. Whether you are a pre-Thanksgiving Christmas observer or hater now is OFFICIALLY the time to celebrate the holiday season. Here are a few ways you can get in the spirit.

1. Decorate that tree

And more importantly with those adorably awkward ornaments you made in elementary school. Hanging lights, ornaments and the topper is always fun and the easiest way to get in the Christmas mood.

2. Hang the stockings

Santa's gotta have something to put those presents in right?

3. Light the candles

Besides the fact that candlelight is the best, they smell AMAZING!!

4. Pull out the flannel

Besides fuzzy socks and big blankets, nothing is cozier than flannel. NOTHING.

5. Turn up the tunes

Michael Bublé's Christmas album is a classic, and no one can convince me otherwise.6. Decorate the house

You can't just decorate the Christmas tree! Whether it's themed pillows or blankets, garland and tinsel or one of those sweet little Christmas villages, you've gotta make sure to deck out ALL of the house

7. Play ALLL the Christmas movies

Home Alone 1 and 2, White Christmas, the Santa Claus movies... I think you can judge for yourself what movies are necessary.

8. Warm up with some hot chocolate

Find your favorite mug and snuggle up with a good book and some hot chocolate.
