The holiday season has arrived, which means it’s time to deck the halls, break out the Christmas cookies, and revel in all things festive. While it’s true that the holidays are the most delightful time of the year, it’s all too easy to get caught up in the frenzy of Christmas preparations.
Your to-do list is likely to be as long as the big man’s. You have a Christmas tree to decorate, Christmas festivities to participate in, and so many items to purchase before Santa comes down the chimney.
We don’t blame you if all you want to do by the time the big day arrives is sit back with a glass of eggnog and watch all your favourite Christmas movies. We’re sure you’ll be writing and mailing a lot of cards before the big day.
Sweet sentiments and Christmas quotations that encapsulate the season are perfect for your friends and family. These holiday quotations, which come from the likes of Benjamin Franklin, Bob Hope, Charles Dickens, and Bing Crosby, will help you get into the festive mood.
They’re also ideal for adding a bit of glitz to your holiday Instagram images!
