In this case it is on the list but the necessities have been bought and we are ready to go. We are going to decorate a Ginger Bread Train. I was thinking about a Christmas date night and walking thru Walmart and I saw options for gingerbread building. I wasn’t sure if my boyfriend would be down for a whole house so I went with a train instead.
My boyfriend loves anything nostalgic but we seem to vary on what that is. He loves his games, cartoons and of course Pokemon. I on the other hand love carving pumpkins, decorating cookies and skating. Its like we are opposites in the way we grew up and he missed out on the normal, or what I consider normal, holiday things.
We had so much fun carving pumpkins this year, which he also hadn’t done since age 10, that I want to give him that fun and wonder with decorating a ginger bread train and having Christmas snacks til we burst, with White Christmas in the back ground. Its a Christmas date and a winter thing. I hope that we can squeeze a snow day in there before winter is over. I bet he hasn’t thrown a snowball in forever. 🙂
Spread some love and cheer this year and try out those fun holiday things that you say you grew out of. You can never grow out of fun. Merry Christmas!
