You already know that I love this time of year and lately I have been thinking a lot about about past Christmas times. It is such a wonderful time of year full of so many happy memories!
I have been thinking about the Christmas that I spent in New York. I spent a good part of my weekends in December exploring the incredible sights of that city. There really is nothing more magical than Christmas time in New York City. If you don't believe me, just go watch Elf!
This time of year always brings so many fun emotions when I think about the Christmas that Brad and I spent more time counting down to December 28th then we spent counting down to the 25th. For some reason getting married was just a little more exciting that year than Christmas was.
And I can't help but think of Christmas time when I was growing up. I love how simple and magical it was. I kind of wish it could still be like that.
(I may not look like it, but I was seriously so excited for that little tutu. I probably wore it everyday for a long time!)
But this year I am trying to spend a little more time thinking about this Christmas:
Because that's really what it is all about. What an incredible thing to be celebrating! I am so grateful for the birth and life of Christ. I am so grateful to have a knowledge of his sacrifice for all of us and to know that he lives and loves all of us!
Merry Christmas to everyone!

Beautiful post Darci! It's easy to forget what or why we are really celebrating. I hope we all take the time to reflect on the live of our Savior and what he has done for us.
