When we get the decorations down from the attic. My son is 5 and gets so excited. He goes around making sure there is something reflecting the holiday in each room. Everyday after that, he moves things around. It’s just fun watching the littler ones react to the holiday. My daughter is doing that teenager, nonchalant attitude about Christmas; however, when we mentioned going to an annual party, she perked right up – well, for about an hour!
Christmas Eve, after we leave my parent’s house, my husband and I finish wrapping presents for the kids. We both get excited, we love watching how excited they both get when they walk into the family room. :)
