Blogmas – Day 5

The ideas for my Blogmas posts are from a post on the blog Diary of a Stay at Home Mom. You can see the list of ideas in my Day 1 Blogmas post here.

My favourite Christmas food has to be the turkey dinner. My aunt always makes a delicious turkey dinner with great potatoes, gravy, and stuffing. My mouth is watering just thinking about it!

There are also some foods that we just eat during the holidays. For example, my mom would always make a crab and cheese spread that was just amazing. But we would mostly just have it around the holidays. Food just tastes better around Christmas!

What are your favourite Christmas foods?

Blogmas – Day 4

I love Christmas music. Even as I’m writing this post in Starbucks, there is a Christmas playlist. But it feels so weird listening to it all through November and December and then it’s over on December 26.

I love all the remakes of classics, like the N’Sync and Backstreet Boys versions of Christmas songs (yes, I’m a 90s girl). I also like “Do They Know It’s Christmas?” and who doesn’t love “Jingle Bell Rock,” accompanied by the dance from Mean Girls!

What are your favourite Christmas songs?

Christmas is a cozy, family holiday to me. I like to spend time with my family and friends, who I don’t normally see through the year. I also like to stay inside and watch movies while drinking a nice hot chocolate.

What does Christmas mean to you?

Blogmas – Day 1

I’ve seen many people posting about blogmas, and I want to join in on the fun. I found an old post on Diary Of A Stay At Home Mom with a list of Blogmas posts that I’m going to use. The link is here https://familycorner.blogspot.ca/2014/11/blogmas-2014-25-days-of-christmas.html?m=1

Here is the list:

I’m so excited about Blogmas!

I will also be doing my own 12 Days of Christmas, where I will post a review for a Christmas themed book in the 12 days leading up to Dec. 25. This is a busy month for blogging!

So without further ado, here’s my post for day 1 of Blogmas!

When I was little, Christmas was my favourite day of the year because I got to see my entire family in one day. In the morning, we would visit my dad’s family at my Nana’s house. Then we would go home and open our own presents. And for dinner we would go to my mom’s parent’s house for dinner.

Unfortunately, now that I’ve grown up, many people have moved to different cities so it’s not possible to see everyone in one day anymore. But it was a nice tradition when I was a kid.

What is your favourite Christmas tradition?
