Five On Friday

It's time for another edition of Five on Friday and I do hope you'll join along!

Remember, all you have to do is post about five things on your mind, add our logo (found at the bottom of this post), and join the party using the linky tools below. Easy, and a great way to find new blogs and be found. :)

Now that Thanksgiving has passed. here are five things that I LOVE about Christmas!

Christmas cards! Oh boy, I still need to design ours, how about you? I sure do love checking the mail daily in December, though.

Vintage ornaments. Some of my most prized ornaments are vintage icicles that my grandparents once owned. I also picked up some colorful ornaments a few summers ago at a neighborhood estate sale. These just have such presence and charm!

Wassail with the family on Christmas morning. This is a tradition of ours and our kitchen smells so yummy because of it. Here is an easy recipe.

Christmas on the radio 24/7. Extra points if they play Amy Grant's Home For Christmas album. (UPDATE: holy moly, I found the album on Amazon here! It's my favorite!)

May your days be merry and bright:

Wrapping gifts. I'm one of the annoying few who actually LOVES wrapping gifts and gets way too excited about it. I'm pretty sure I am going to go with simple kraft paper (like this on Amazon) this year and use special tags and ribbon to jazz it up. I've got some tags ordered and can't wait to show them off!

TGIF y'all, and hope you will join in on Five on Friday this week! Cheers to the weekend!

    No shame girl; I love wrapping presents too! In fact, it's far more fun than the actual shopping for me!

    I love those ornaments! I've always liked the idea of the same wrapping paper under a tree but with fun/fancy gift tags and ribbons/bows! -Megan

    Amy Grant Christmas is THE BEST in the world. Since Nora Beth was due on Christmas Eve, I told EVERYONE I was going to labor to that album and ended up doing just that. Hahaha.
