It's the most wonderful time of the year!

I love December! I love the holidays! I love spending time with the family and all of the opportunities to give to others. I love long drives looking at Christmas lights. I love baking cookies and drinking hot chocolate. I love decorating the Christmas tree with the kids! I am still like a kid at times when Christmas comes around!

Ernie took vacation last week and spent the week at home with us. It was wonderful having him here all the time! We went to High Delta Safari Park Wednesday. The kids had a blast feeding the animals in the petting zoo. We had a great time driving through the park and feeding the animals from the car. Annalee had a little scare. She turned around and looked out her window and there was a huge ox looking at her! Other than that, it was a wonderful afternoon.

I'm with you; there are so many things to appreciate this time of year! And having your hubby home to "play" with the family ranks right up there!

You mention hot chocolate in your post. It's one of my favorite things about winter. A big mug of hot chocolate with marshmallows is great on a cold day.
