With this being one of the busiest times of the year, I’m willing to bet more than a few of you have been racing around like a crazy person trying to get your gifts bought, wrapped, shipped- and all the other holiday hustle and bustle activities done.

While that may seem pretty typical for you, I want to remind you to take a moment to stop and enjoy the season for a moment. Put your to-do list away and just get out and enjoy the weather and festivities. There’s more to life than being busy. Besides, stopping to appreciate the moment will make your efforts all the more meaningful.

Not sure what to do? Here are a few of my favorite things:

• Bake or buy some delicious treats enjoy

• Drive by holiday light displays

• Ice Skate (if that’s available where you live)

• Roast marshmallows by a campfire

• Curl up and watch a holiday classic like “It’s a Wonderful Life”

You don’t have to use my suggestions. Take this opportunity to make it your own and create a new holiday tradition to enjoy with your friends or family!
