Advent Sunday marks the beginning of a beautiful season, and this year, it’s falling on December 1, 2024. As we gather to celebrate, I can feel the anticipation in the air. For me, this time of year means blasting Christmas music throughout the house, filling every corner with festive melodies that bring warmth and joy.
There’s something truly special about the first Sunday of Advent. It symbolizes not just the countdown to Christmas, but also a time for reflection and togetherness with family. As we light the Advent candles, I’m reminded of the warmth of our family traditions and the love that surrounds us.
The house transforms into a cozy haven, filled with the scent of holiday treats and the sound of laughter. It’s a time to reconnect, share stories, and create lasting memories. With each carol playing in the background, I can’t help but feel the holiday spirit enveloping us, reminding us of the joy and love that this season brings.
So, let the Christmas music play, and let the countdown to Christmas begin! Here’s to a beautiful Advent season filled with love, warmth, and cherished moments with family.

Thank you! 🙂 I’d love to have a wreath, but since I’m making everything myself, I just haven’t had the time to create one this year (and few years before). So, I’ve been keeping it simple and putting everything on the plates instead. These pictures are from a few years ago—this year, it’s even simpler. No time, no energy…
