Christmas is Wonderful

Christmas. The season that puts a smile on everyone's faces. The season that teaches us to be grateful. The season that teaches us to appreciate the little things. The season that makes all of our senses come to life, the smell of fresh baked cookies, the food that makes our taste buds explode, the touch of new textures like snow, the music that makes us dance, the decorations and lights we see everywhere that makes us want to take a thousand pictures. The season that reunites families, the season that teaches you love. It reminds you to look around and see that life is wonderful. It's the season that creates traditions. Every family with a different tradition that brings them together. I have had the amazing opportunity of experience many different traditions, from meals to music and even singing around christmas trees. Each countries has a different way of celebrating Christmas. It might be different everywhere, but the Christmas spirit will always remain the same.

Here are some Christmas quotes:

“It's not what’s under the tree that matters it’s who’s around it” (By Charlie Brown)

“Christmas isn’t a season. It’s a feeling” (By Edna Ferber)

“Christmas is a day of meaning and traditions, a special day spent in the warm circle of family and friends.” (By Margaret Thatcher)

“Christmas waves a magic wand over this world, and behold, everything is softer and more beautiful.” (By Norman Vincent Peale)

Wow I have lost count of the times I have said Christmas hehehehe. I hope you enjoyed this post, I know it’s on the shorter side, but I think it’s important to know that Christmas is all about the spirit of happiness and love (of course it’s also important to get excited about the food, hehehehe kidding…. or maybe not). Take this blog post as a way of sharing you traditions and learning new ones, comment what brings you and your family together. We wear santa hats and mix Spanish and danish traditions. I hope you all had a merry Christmas. Happy Holidays and Happy new year!

Where will you be spending the last day of the year?

I can’t believe 2017 is already over!

As always,

Remember, Be You.
