I went thrifting just a few days ago and I saw some pages on the floor that looked like it came from a kids journal. It’s about Christmas and it’s just so nice to see that a kid thinks like this. How Christmas is supposed to be about joy and spending time with loved ones and how the presents are not important.
It’s so refreshing to see a kid think like this.
I just saw a TikTok video of someone throwing away their already decorated real tree because some type of bug suddenly started coming out of it. here’s the link: https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTYbdsT9M/
As someone who has never had a real Christmas tree. I just want to know how does that even happen? Do they start coming out the tree since it’s nice and warm indoors? I don’t know that video freaked me out. I hate bugs and I don’t know what I would’ve done if this happened to me. I wouldn’t even want to touch the Christmas tree to take it to the dumpster.
When the man in the video hugged the tree to pick it up and take it to the garbage. That gave me the chills just thinking of the bugs going from the tree to crawling on me. Omg. What would you guys do in this situation?
Christmas is a time of joy, celebration, and most importantly, tradition. Every family has its own unique way of celebrating the holiday season, and these traditions are what make Christmas so special and memorable. Whether it’s decorating the tree, baking cookies, or watching classic holiday movies, these rituals bring us closer together and create lasting memories.
One of the most cherished traditions is decorating the Christmas tree. This activity is often a family affair, with everyone contributing their favorite ornaments and adding their personal touch to the tree. The twinkling lights, the shiny baubles, and the scent of fresh pine fill the home with a festive spirit that is hard to match. For many, the tree is the centerpiece of their holiday decorations, and it’s where gifts are lovingly placed, waiting to be opened on Christmas morning.
Another beloved tradition is baking Christmas cookies. This is a time for creativity and fun in the kitchen, as families come together to make their favorite recipes. From gingerbread men to sugar cookies decorated with colorful icing, the possibilities are endless. Baking cookies is not just about the delicious treats; it’s about spending quality time with loved ones, sharing laughter, and creating something sweet together.
Holiday movies also play a significant role in Christmas traditions. Classics like "Home Alone," "Charlie Brown Christmas," and "Elf" are watched year after year, bringing a sense of nostalgia and warmth. These films remind us of the magic of Christmas and the importance of family, kindness, and generosity.
In conclusion, Christmas traditions are an essential part of what makes the holiday season so magical. They bring families together, create lasting memories, and fill our hearts with joy. As we continue to celebrate these traditions year after year, we pass down a legacy of love and happiness to future generations.

I know I wrote about this in a different blogmas post a few years ago, but if you haven’t read it I’m going to talk about it again anyways so you don’t miss out on what I said lol. I heard this question on the radio a few years ago and it was would you rather give gifts or get them. They had a bunch of people call in with their answers. Loved hearing what people had to say so that’s what encouraged that blog post a few years ago.
For me, it’s very simple. I would rather give gifts. I love seeing the look on their face Christmas Day when they’re opening up their presents and it’s exactly what they wanted. That makes my heart feel full. All year long I pay attention to what the people around me have mentioned they want or things they liked when we would go to the store. Then I save up for Christmas and get them what they want. If I don’t manage to get them what they want for Christmas I save up and get it for them on their birthday.
The look on their face is enough for me and I honestly couldn’t ask for anything else on Christmas. What about you guys? Do you like giving gifts or receiving?
