Christmas Spirit Award

I received this award from Kelly at Our Family Ramblings last week.

Of course with receiving awards, there are some rules that come along with it. For this particular one, the rules are very simple.
They are....You must be a true Christmas lover to receive this award.
The person to whom you give the award must also be in love with Christmas.
You must link back to the person who gave you the award.
You must list 5 things that you love about Christmas. If you can't limit it to 5 things, then keep going till you run out of space! :o)
Pass the award along to as many people as you like. That can be 1 or 45; it's up to you. But, you must pass it on to at least one person in order to keep the Christmas cheer going!
Let your recipients know that you have tagged them by leaving them a comment on their blog.

5 things I love about Christmas:

1) That we celebrate Jesus and His birthday.

2) That it's my daughter's birthday.

3) Decorating the tree with sentimental ornaments.

4) Christmas parades with the kids. I enjoy the local ones that are small with horses and lots of candy. :)

5) Gifts! Giving & Receiving!

6) I also like that my son thinks Santa is Noah. We have a Noah picture book and he has a long , white beard. The last 2 years I've been at the hospital for Christmas (once with somebody in labor & once in labor myself!) so we haven't done much of the Santa thing. Hopefully I won't be in the hospital again this Christmas! :)

I tag my friend Jessica for this award. So don't forget to check out her answers in a couple days.
