I love Christmastime also. But I am not all about gifts and gift giving. I am about decorations and celebrating with friends and family. We love taking the grandchildren out for a ride at night to look at the "pretties" as my one grandson named them when he just started to talk. They are amazed at all the lights and decorations people put up. We love getting together with family and just talking about what is going on and watching the grandchildren play and all the hugs and kisses that are given. Gifts are nice but overrated, I think. Many people are just plain rude at this time of year. I was always taught to accept a gift and keep your mouth shut if you do not like it. nuf said
