She really knows all about Xmas now so that makes it fun. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-feeling-the-christmas-spirit-this-holiday-season#post-1293607 Fri, 20 Dec 2013 09:25:20 +0000 LuLu Mom 1293607@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>YES! More so this year than the past in recent memory, I think it's having a child old enough to enjoy some of the traditions. I'm usually sick of Christmas music, but I've been listening to it on my own at work since Thanksgiving :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-feeling-the-christmas-spirit-this-holiday-season#post-1293596 Fri, 20 Dec 2013 09:21:12 +0000 mrs. bird 1293596@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yes! this is my favorite christmas season in years! mr. bird has been a great sport about taking part in my cheese ball holiday activities :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-feeling-the-christmas-spirit-this-holiday-season#post-1293553 Fri, 20 Dec 2013 09:03:56 +0000 Smurfette 1293553@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes!! We are going to a Christmas Dance recital tomorrow at the studio my friend owns. Even more Christmas cheer! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-feeling-the-christmas-spirit-this-holiday-season#post-1293552 Fri, 20 Dec 2013 09:03:20 +0000 irene 1293552@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Strangely no. I *WANTED* to. But no. I tried to play xmas music and all at home but still not really feeling it. Maybe we had all the fun back in halloween and the quota of "festivity" is used up for the year.</p> <p>In which I guess it is alright, because I usually had "Christmas withdrawal depression" in January. Maybe I won't this year. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-feeling-the-christmas-spirit-this-holiday-season#post-1293536 Fri, 20 Dec 2013 08:54:21 +0000 yin 1293536@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! I think having a toddler who is starting to understand the elements of Christmas changes things a lot. I'm definitely in the Christmas mood and can't wait for the big day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-feeling-the-christmas-spirit-this-holiday-season#post-1293102 Thu, 19 Dec 2013 23:18:37 +0000 MrsMccarthy 1293102@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>SOoOo much!!! I am and always have been a big lover holidays, especially Xmas but this year it's even more intense because of my son. I am so excited and enjoying the season so much. He loves to point to the tree and look and the lights and dance to all of the songs. It's good times. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-feeling-the-christmas-spirit-this-holiday-season#post-1293088 Thu, 19 Dec 2013 23:08:11 +0000 lovehoneybee 1293088@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, and it's making me sad. I'm usually all about the holidays, but with everything I just can't this year. I'm hoping I can find some peace next week, though, and I'm determined to double down next year. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-feeling-the-christmas-spirit-this-holiday-season#post-1293081 Thu, 19 Dec 2013 23:04:25 +0000 BananaPancakes 1293081@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, but I rarely get into a holiday mood when it's in the middle of the week and we only get the day off. It's just stressful at that point. And then we have to try and cram all 4 houses into one day, which blows and makes me cranky. I'm lying in bed right now stressing about our Christmas Day schedule instead of sleeping. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-feeling-the-christmas-spirit-this-holiday-season#post-1293039 Thu, 19 Dec 2013 22:53:22 +0000 Beehive 1293039@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've started playing the Pandora Christmas music station in the background at home, it really helps make everything feel Christmassy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-feeling-the-christmas-spirit-this-holiday-season#post-1292989 Thu, 19 Dec 2013 22:33:35 +0000 LovelyPlum 1292989@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Trying to! It took a while this year, but now that school is over, I'm hoping I can concentrate on Christmas-y things. I do love it, but it can be really hard with so much else going on! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-feeling-the-christmas-spirit-this-holiday-season#post-1292983 Thu, 19 Dec 2013 22:30:29 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 1292983@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm finally slowing down enough to feel it. I'm looking forward to the next week. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-feeling-the-christmas-spirit-this-holiday-season#post-1292981 Thu, 19 Dec 2013 22:29:41 +0000 Mae 1292981@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I sort of am, but its also felt so rushed. And work has been stressing me out. I have been sort of missing Christmases when I was still in school and had like 2-3 whole weeks off to really soak in all the Christmas-ness. It feels to me like no one cares about Christmas this year. So many of my family and friends have to work on Christmas eve and/or day after Christmas. And I just had a client ask for a meeting on the 26th. I wanted to be like-- SERIOUSLY LADY? It's freaking Christmas go celebrate and stop thinking about business for like, 3 days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-feeling-the-christmas-spirit-this-holiday-season#post-1292962 Thu, 19 Dec 2013 22:22:05 +0000 mrbee 1292962@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't feel it yet... but then again, I haven't felt the Christmas spirit since I was 7 years old. I'm hoping that now that we have kids, we might vicariously experience Christmas through our children! But they haven't really been too into Christmas yet either.</p> <p>I need to borrow Mrs. Train's parents to dress up as Santa and Mrs. Clause!!</p> <p>Are you feeling the Christmas spirit this holiday season? </p>
