My Loves Christmas Means So Much To Me

That's What Christmas Means To Me

That’s what Christmas means to me is that one song that I could listen to all year long. It’s a very special song. It is filled with love and emotion.

Christmas lights up my home and warms my heart. This is what Christmas means to me.

This Christmas song reminds me of why the holiday season is very dear to me.

I never tire of hearing this song time and time again because it is filled with every thing Christmas.

Here are the lyrics to this beautiful song. Sing along and enjoy it!

Oh, yeahCandles burnin’ lowLots of mistletoeLots of snow and iceEverywhere we goChoirs singin’ carolsRight outside my door
All these things and more (all these things and more)Whoa, that’s what Christmas means to me my love(That’s what Christmas means to me, my love) whoa, yeahYeah
And ya know what I meanI see your smilin’ faceLike I never seen beforeEven though I love ya madlyIt seems I love you moreThe little cards you’ll give meWill touch my heart for sure
All these things and more, darling (all these things and more)Whoa, that’s what Christmas means to me my love(That’s what Christmas means to me my love) oh, yeah, I
I feel like runnin’ wild (runnin’ wild)As anxious as a little childGreet you ‘neath the mistletoeKiss you once and then some moreAnd wish you a Merry Christmas baby (wish you a Merry Christmas baby)Whoa, and such happiness in the comin’ yearOh, baby (happiness in the comin’ year)
Let’s deck the halls with hollySing sweet silent nightFill the tree with angel hairAnd pretty, pretty lightsGo to sleep and wake upJust before daylight
And all these things and more, baby (all these things and more)Whoa, that’s what Christmas means to me my love(That’s what Christmas means to me my love) oh, baby, baby
Candles burnin’ lowLots and lots of snow (alright)Christmas bells are ringin’Christmas choirs singin’Christmas mistletoe

Have A Holly Jolly Christmas

Christmas Blessings Are On The Way

Have a Holly Jolly Christmas

Have a holly jolly Christmas and embrace the season.

O Holy night the stars are brightly shining and we are in a real Christmas mood.

The first noel is playing in the back round and soon chestnuts will be roasting on an open fire in the backyard.

My family and I will be enjoying some homemade eggnog while we listen to Have a Holly Jolly Christmas. Guess what, we plan to do just that. 

Gingerbread cookies will also be baking in the oven as we wrap our Christmas presents. Christmas gifts will be under the tree at midnight on Christmas Eve.

Santa and his elves with meet the grinch at the North Pole and Mrs. Claus will make some hot cocoa for all as they get ready to leave the North Pole. Santa’s big red sleigh is loaded down with toys and all kinds of Christmas surprises.

Christmas is coming soon and we will be ready to celebrate and enjoy all of the festivities.

Have yourself a merry little Christmas and love one another.

Here’s wishing you a peaceful and joyful holiday season and have a holly jolly Christmas, it is the best time of the year.

Sincerely,

Cynthia

Christmas Is Every Where

Will You Be Ready When The Christmas  Season Arrives

The joys of the Christmas season

The Joy of the Christmas Season

Christmas will be here in a matter of days, four months to be exact. Will you be ready?. I know I will be. I have a few more gifts to buy. I’ll be shopping online for a few small items this weekend. Can you say, I am excited? I am over the moon and beyond elated.

Defining the joys of the Christmas season is so much fun. I have been going in and out of stores looking for Christmas. So far the only store that is spilling over is Hobby Lobby. I went to two Dollar Tree stores and they were bare. They barely had any fall decorations.

I was hoping to find some crafting materials at Dollar Tree, but those shelves were empty as well. There is one more Dollar Tree that I know of and I will visit to see what they have.

Anyway getting back to Christmas. Hobby Lobby had some beautiful Christmas ornaments. The ones that I saw were absolutely gorgeous. I don’t think I have ever seen such a huge inventory of Christmas. I got so excited seeing it all I didn’t know which way to turn.

My Next Stop Christmas Shop

The Joys of the Christmas Season

My next stop for Christmas shopping will be Home Goods again. When I was there not too long ago they only had autumn decorations and I must say that they were lovely. Home Goods always has some beautiful things for the home and holidays. I love that their prices are amazing quality and their items have amazing prices.

I’ll be going to Home Goods before the week ends.

I’ll share more of the joys of the Christmas season with you and all of my beautiful Christmas finds too and I hope they give you a little touch of inspiration when it comes to decorating your home for the holiday season. 

Merry Christmas Everyone,

The True Meaning of Christmas

By Cyndi – Posted on

The Meaning of the Christmas Season Fills My Home

The True Meaning of Christmas

The true meaning of Christmas resides in my home and fills my heart with love year round.

For me and my lovely family Christmas is warmth, love and comfort on the couch. Nestled deep into the most comfortable couch situated in the perfect place which is in my living room and handcrafted with brilliant design elements that make my couch a comfy place, I love to snuggle on the sofa with an abundance of soft pillows, quilts and blankets surrounding me.

There Will Always Be a Story About About Christmas and What It Means To Me

Christmastime means embracing the holiday season with a real sense of joy! This is the same joy that brings many miracles that teaches us the importance of loving one another. I love this awesome feeling that hugs me tightly morning, noon and night and never lets me go.

This wonderful feeling moves me with compassion. It also clothes me with inspiration and when this happens I quickly grab my pen and notebook and the writing session begins.

It is then that I pour out my heart to write short stories of Christmas love. This feeling is accompanied by beautiful Christmas poems.

This feeling then takes me into my kitchen where I find myself opening.a box of Ghirardelli Dark Brownie Chocolate Mix, my favorite brownie mix. The dark chocolate lends a touch of warm for my spirit and love for my stomach. Most of the time you won’t find a brownie left after they’ve cooled down. My family gobbles them up so fast that I find myself baking more brownies the next day during the Christmas Season.

During our baking sessions it is only appropriate for Christmas music to chime in followed by my singing, dancing and with tears in the midst.

One of my favorite Christmas is O Holy Night. Josh Groban is one of my favorite Christmas singers and along with his rendition of Celebration Me Home, my house is never dry. Tears fall and with good reason.

Does Christmas make you feel warm and fuzzy all over? Can you describe what Christmas means to you and the feeling that flows into your life, heart and home?

I hope you’re getting to be warmed and I hope you enjoy all the days leading up to the most wonderful time of the year.

Merry Christmas Everyone,

 

 

Christmas Is Coming and Autumn Too

Let The Festivities Begin

Fall and Christmas Festivities

Fall and Christmas Festivities

Hello Christmas Luminaries,

This week my spirit has been filled with the feeling of Christmas.

I went to Hobby Lobby looking for Christmas and my oh my, I found Christmas. Yes, I found Christmas at every turn. I got so excited and wanted to stay there all day long. It was amazing seeing all of the autumn and Christmas decor. The shelves were abundant and the vibrant and bright colors popped!

There was an enormous variety of fall decorations and the Christmas trees were covered with multi-colored lights as well as with white lights.

I took pictures and made a few videos to share with you. To say that I was beyond excited to see all of this festive beauty in one space is putting it mildly.

Autumn and Christmas Decorations

Fall and Christmas Festivities

We are just a few short weeks away from the Fall season and I’ll be ready. I’m not sure if I’ll be covering my home from top to bottom with fall or if I will just add a few touches of Autumn here and there. As much as I love the season, Christmas is and always will be my first love. Last year I added a few pieces of fall which did not stay up long because I went crazy for Christmas. It literally flooded my thoughts and I found myself decorating my entire house from top to bottom, from to back.

Also, I bought a flocked tree for the first time in my life. My family and I have always had a real or live tree, but we decided to buy a flocked tree in 2023. It was so pretty. I purchased it from King of Christmas and I was not disappointed even though I could have decorated it a lot more. White lights came with the tree and I added red bulbs. This year I will add a lot more Christmas ornaments to make it really beautiful.

Fall and Christmas Festivities

During the fall and Christmas seasons I look forward to celebrating my own unique and personalized fall and Christmas festivities because I look forward to more love, to give and to share all that my heart tells me to.

As I get ready for the holiday season, I hope that you, too, will personalize your holidays and enjoy every second of the season!

Merry Christmas to all,

Cyndi

Christmas Eve In Our Home

A Toast To Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve in our home

Christmas Eve In Our Home

It’s Christmas Eve and our home is festive and overflowing with love. The fireplace is warm and we are all sitting in comfy-cozy.

Dinner was delicious and dessert scrumptious. The dark chocolate brownies warmed our palettes and hot cocoa comforted every inch of our spirits.

Andy Williams sang to us and now it’s time to watch Home Alone before we all head up to bed.

Reflecting on Christmas past, we are always thankful for all the times that we gathered together to create those memorable moments that we love.

We love this very special time of year. Christmas illumines our hearts and clothes us with love. Forever grateful we will be.

As the night slowly comes to a close, we remember those who are no longer here in physically, but always near in memory.

It’s time for bed now. Christmas Eve is quiet. It is serenity and peace sprinkled with good cheer.

We kneel to pray to thank God for this beautiful day that has now turned into night. Never in darkness we are surrounded by the Light that makes Christmas so very special both day and night.

Merry Christmas to all and to all be blessed by the Light.
