It’s no surprise that Christmas is my favorite time of the year, and the countdown is starting with only 20 more weeks until Christmas! Baking cookies, watching movies with Aimery, matching pajamas, and spending time with family are all my favorite things to do around Christmas time. Who wouldn’t look forward to that all year? Especially with not having much to look forward to these days, I’ve had Christmas on my mind lately!

This weekend, Aimery and I are pretending it’s Christmas by bringing the cozy elements of Christmas that we love into the summer. We’ll be doing our favorite things - making hot chocolate and s’mores together while cuddling on the couch with a good book! I’ve been reading lots of Christmas books lately to bring some love, family, and Christmas into my everyday life this summer.  Keep reading for my favorites!
