For me, December is about family and friends. The joy of sharing fun, good food, and good company with each other. I love to watch the kids (any child) open presents and squeal with delight at what they received from "Santa".
Every year, Charlie and I choose a night and load up Angela, Heather, my Mom, and Bandit in the van and take a ride through the city to see the houses with Christmas displays set up in the yards. Then we head down to the zoo for a sleigh ride and hot chocolate, to check out the light diplays that have been set up there. Then it is off to the exibition grounds to drive through the Festival of Lights Village.
I do a lot of baking in December. Close to Christmas, I volunteer for the Christmas Cheer Board, delivering hampers. I add some homemade treats to each of the deliveries, just to add a little extra joy of the season.
