Everyone has their reasons for their favorite Holiday and I'm here to share mine with all of you!

1. Holiday Cheer

I love the spirit Christmas brings this time of year. With all of the cold, wet snow that turns into cold, wetter slush, the happiness that this Holiday brings around is very welcome

2. UGLY CHRISTMAS SWEATERS

If you don't get excited to wear and see all the beautifully ugly Christmas sweaters when December comes around then please jump on this train to greatness. Ugly sweaters are the Halloween costumes of Christmas and are a requirement for the entire month of December (and possibly the New Year!).

3. Hot Cocoa

Okay this one is a given. What is Christmas without it's hot chocolate? And if you live in the Northwest corner of Indiana, it gives you life in the dead of winter. (Life Tip: Stir with a candy cane and add marsh mellows... You're welcome.)

Who doesn't love a good Christmas movie? Netflix's holiday selection and the Freeform's "25 Days of Christmas" are a blessing during December. From "The Grinch Who Stole Christmas" or my personal favorite, "The Santa Claus" movies or the classic "Elf,"there's a little something from everyone in the family.

5. Christmas Cooking

From the big dinner on Christmas day, to all the homemade cookies grandma makes each year, Christmas brings some great food for days of enjoyment. I look forward to mashed potatoes each year, followed by a plate full (or two) of Christmas desserts. It's like Thanksgiving, with the added red and green decorations with colorful ornaments every where.

6. Christmas Parties

If you're lucky, you'll be invited to a few different Christmas parties that will include some of the following points, such as ugly sweaters and great cooking. I get super excited each year for my annual family Christmas parties with grandma's homemade cookies, goody bags for all the children, and my many, many family members. It's always a great time with the people I love the most. Spending times with the ones you love definitely makes all of the cold weather and snow worth it. Source

7. PRESSSEEEENTSSSS

Whether you're getting them or receiving them, Christmas presents are a wonderful part of the Christmas festivities. I love looking for and buying the perfect present for the ones I love, imagining the look on their face when they get it and how happy they'll be with it. I also love Secret Santa exchanges, and trying your best to figure out who everyone has in the group.

8. Christmas Music

Last, but definitely not least, Christmas time brings, well, Christmas music. I have 93.1 saved into my radio dash for specifically this time of the year. You doesn't love to start rock'en around the Christmas tree at Thanksgiving, because I sure do!

With Christmas around the corner, it is time to be thankful for all of the wonderful things this month brings to us for the Holidays. Through all the snow and cold weather, all of the cheerful things Christmas brings is worth all of the drudging weather.
