DECORATE MY CHRISTMAS TREE
The most important item for my holiday bucket list: the tree! I’m excited to decorate my tree this weekend. If you want to get into the spirit earlier, check out my decorate with me from last year.
BAKE COOKIES
Baking is one of my favorite activities year round but the holidays are a great excuse to get in the kitchen. I’ve started saving recipes on my Christmas 2020 Pinterest board.
DRIVE AROUND & LOOK AT CHRISTMAS LIGHTS
I usually visit Christmas in the Park in San Jose but this year will look a little different. We’ll grab a hot chocolate and drive around to find the best lights.
WATCH HALLMARK CHRISTMAS MOVIES
Don’t judge me: I have the Hallmark movie app. I downloaded it a couple years ago to track the movies I’ve watched. I checked out the previews for this year’s releases and there are some good ones. I’m planning to watch On The 12th Date of Christmas, Christmas Waltz, If I Only Had Christmas, Jingle Bell Bride, and One Royal Christmas.
WRAP PRESENTS
Preferably with Elf on in the background. I found some cute wrapping from Target.
MAKE HOT CHOCOLATE
I shared a great hot chocolate recipe in my decorate with me last year. I’m planning to share a Mexican hot chocolate this year. Make sure you’re subscribed to my YouTube channel so you don’t miss it! Also, I fully intend to top my hot chocolate with these adorable snowman marshmallows.
SHOP FOR HOLIDAY DECOR
I’ve already started this process. I recently shared a Christmas shop with me. I will absolutely do more shopping in the coming weeks.
LISTEN TO CHRISTMAS MUSIC
I make a new playlist every year and I always find at least one new song. Should I make us a Christmas Spotify playlist this year?
KISS UNDER THE MISTLETOE
Get ready Joe 🙂
SEND OUT CHRISTMAS CARDS
Joe and I have sent out our annual Christmas cards for several years now. It’s fun to get photos taken or find photos from our adventures during the year. Last year we used photos from Thailand!
What is on your holiday bucket list this year?
