10 things to do before Christmas

Christmas Tree Day in my house is aways 1 December. I love it. To me it signifies the start of the joyous Christmas season, and also the start of the seemingly endless to-do lists that dominate the countdown to Christmas day. Here is my top 10 things to tick off this year:

1. Be kind
2. Go nuts buying toys for nieces and nephews
3. Watch nothing but Christmas themed movies
4. Eat fruitcake
5. Compile a Christmas carol mega-mix playlist
6. Send Christmas cards
7. Catch up with friends
8. Wrap presents while watching the carols on the television
9. Make trifle
10. Wake up thankful Christmas morning and enjoy a day of laughter and joy.
