Freestyle Fridays: Holiday Bucket List

I’m done with finals! (How are you?)

That means I am fully immersing myself in the holiday spirit, starting with my…

Holiday Bucket List! 

(can you tell I love lists yet?)

I’ll be traveling between Denver, Washington state (Seattle-area) and Mexico for the month of December, so I’m looking for ways to celebrate in allll of these…if you have any other great ideas, leave me a comment 🙂

• See the Denver Zoo Lights

• Have our annual Holiday Potluck with friends
• Wear 29 days of Christmas socks (yes, I have that many…it’s an addiction)
• Buy a fun-ugly Christmas sweater
• Wear fun holiday outfits
• Do one Christmas craft

• Decorate our apartment and porch
• Watch holiday episodes of my favorite shows
• Watch the holiday classics (including Love Actually, Christmas Vacation and Die Hard…of course)
• Go ice skating
• Go to one Black Friday sale
• Go on a see-the-Christmas-lights drive
• Donate a meal to the food pantry
• Buy a gift for a child from the Angel Tree
• Visit the Georgetown Christmas Market in the Colorado mountains
• See Frisco’s Wassail Days (also in the Colorado mountains)
• Go skiing
• Find a candelight service (it’s tradition!) in Seattle
• Visit Leavenworth near Seattle
• Sing and/or listen to holiday music non-stop
• Bake many holiday cookies
• Host a (our first!) fabulous Thanksgiving dinner
• Sit in a coffee shop with a festive drink and watch the snow/cold.
• Eat at a fancy restaurant with a festive special
• Have a just-the-two-of-us Christmas with a festive meal
• See the Nutcracker at the Seattle Ballet
• Enjoy Mexico with my family over New Year’s
• Document all this with my camera…but also remember to put it away (and all those other electronics) and enjoy the moment.
