The Holidays Are Coming!

Tis the season! Get Ready…Get Set...Go!

October

It is October and that means the holiday season starts on October 31! It kicks off with Halloween and doesn’t stop until early January. Whew! I’m exhausted just thinking about it.

I love handing out the full-size candy bars on Halloween and hearing the kids exclaim “Wow, it's a big candy bar,” and then watching them run back to their parents to tell them all about how they scored. I also really love seeing the fun costumes and that includes the older kids. Some people think once you are in high school you should stop trick or treating - not me. It brings me joy to see the older kids out with friends having fun.

November

This month kicks off with Day of the Dead. Then we go right into the month of giving thanks. This can kick in the time for stressful travel planning and cooking. But it is also a great time to stop and take a moment to appreciate all we can be grateful for the little and the big things. 

I start each day by listing three things that I am grateful for. Some days are easier than others. The list can range from being grateful for the health of myself, my husband, and our old lady kitties, to having a working washing machine or coffee maker.

December

December is full of holidays including Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, and others. It is the month that has the most varied traditions, ranging from religious to secular and from state to state or family to family. Not to mention the food! I love this month the most, learning about other traditions and cultures. 

Then we close out the calendar year.

January - How did that happen?

And then just like that, we are in a new year. We have new goals ahead of us and are left with the holiday glow…until the tree comes down and all the holiday decorations are put away.

The holiday season is a wonderful time for friends and family to come together to make new memories and reminisce. I love pulling out the old photo albums and having some good laughs about gifts that year, jokes we played on each other, and countless other things.

If you are looking for a photographer to capture special moments this holiday season, reach out. I would be honored to be the one to capture your laughter and joy this holiday season.
