Holiday Perfection

My very best, favorite thing about the holiday season is sitting on a couch next to a brightly lit Christmas Tree, listening to Christmas music, drinking hot coco and relaxing. Truly, life can't get much better than that.

Except that it can. If one were to share that space with a special someone (family members, friends, significant others, etc.), then life would be perfect. No worries, no concerns and someone to share that space with. Someone who understands you and loves you and loves spending time together without expectations.

And in my mental picture I always have to add a fireplace, soft white snow falling rapidly to cover the earth and silence throughout the house. Those evenings are probably my most relaxing and memorable. Usually they follow a very active day playing in the snow, sledding, shoveling, ice skating, making snowmen... you know, all the glorious outdoor activities that make living in the midwest bearable.

Then, to top off those perfect nights, a bath with peppermint bubble soap and a good book could make that fairy-tale complete.

Here's to fulfilling most of my holiday fantasies every night this holiday season!
