Christmastime is here!!! ...okay, maybe not.

Right about this time every year, I get the Christmas itch. I start daydreaming about the crunch of snow beneath my feet, the smell of Christmas cookies filling my Nana's house, vibrant Christmas lights winking at you everywhere you go.
And now, I'm going to attack you with pictures galore, and make you feel just as in the holiday spirit as I am!! ...in July! ;)

Mmmm snow! I like warm weather, but there are definitely moments where I miss the snow ;) I'd never be able to move somewhere it doesn't snow...It'd simply feel wrong!

The first time I ever saw this movie was on Christmas day one year; I've loved it ever since!

This makes me think of Santa Paws!! It's this cheesy little talking-dog movie, but I got the biggest kick out of it! You should just go rent it ;)

See that little shape on the side of the first candle? It looks kindof like a rat....or a bunny. Hmmm...

Someday, when I have my own house, it will be totally decked out for Christmastime. (Isn't it funny that "Christmastime" is all one word? I never knew, until it came up without a squiggly red line! Whoa)

Tumblr_ktnzsydaze1qzu35ro1_500_large
Mmm mmm goood.

When I remember...*cough*.
I'm a horrible person.

  2. Nooooooooooooo, you can't do this to me! There is something about the heat of summer that makes me want Christams and snow and the decorations and Christmas music (I may be guilty of listening to it in the summer.....) I love all of the pictures you found, lovely!
