There's More to December Than Just Christmas
December has to be one of our favorite months! There is so much anticipation, excitement, and celebration in the air. It's also a month where we reflect on this year and look forward to the next one.
While we're excited for everything to come, we're definitely not wishing this month away! There is so much to look forward to in December and we don’t just mean the traditional, widely celebrated holidays! We’re talking about a day dedicated entirely to the sock, one in honor of the Dewey Decimal system (RIP), and another for those of us who wish we could time travel. Oh, and we should probably mention there’s a day solely dedicated to having anything you want covered in chocolate. Need we say more?
Happy celebrating and happy December!
