I love the holidays, and I mean who doesn't? Unless you're Scrooge of course. Anyway, there are so many reasons I love the holidays, but theres so many things that back fire in my face while I'm doing my lovin'. Here they are:

I love giving gifts! I love picking gifts out that I know people love because seeing their faces as they open them honestly make the season special. Yes, I understand that materialism is not a good way to love on your loved ones, but if you say that receiving gifts sucks, you're lying. Everyone likes receiving gifts, which makes giving them even better. Now, the back fire to all of this is I want to give everyone such good gifts, but when it comes down to it, while I'm screaming "yes! more gifts!" my bank account is oozing out a cry of "no!"

Along with the buying and spending of gifts, lines make shopping easily lose it's appeal (and quite honestly thats hard to do because shopping is amazing!). It's like you walk in, know exactly what you want, and when you get in line you wait another twenty minutes just to pay for it. I think anyone can agree it is irritating.

Another thing I love is when you either visit family or family visits you. It's so nice to see everyone for the holidays, but the second you have family visiting you, you know you are going to have to clean the whole house even though it will end up getting messy again. Maybe this one is just me, but I hate cleaning. The only thing I notice a difference in when you clean it is the bathroom, besides that, everything else just looks the same.

Have a happy holidays everyone! Remember all good things come with a little cost! It's alright though because at the end it is all worth it.
