It’s that time of year again: shopping, wrapping, Christmas parties, and relatives. It’s usually a very stressful time for most of us. We don’t have enough hours in the day to finish all of the work we have to do. The house needs to be decorated, the cookies need to be baked, and somehow, someway we need to remember that we have a family that needs to be tended to.
Don’t forget to turn to your partner for a little stress relief and relaxation. The Christmas season actually lends a helping hand in finding ways to be romantic, you just need to take the initiative. Here are my top 5 ways to find romance during the holidays.
Mistletoe
Hang mistletoe in the doorway of at least one room in your house. Remember to kiss every time the two of you are standing there together.
Christmas Carols
Put on your favorite Christmas music and hold your sweetie in your arms and dance in the kitchen, living room, dining room, bedroom, etc. You get the idea.
Holiday Lingerie
You have all seen it and maybe you already have some. I’m talking about the red velvet nightie with the white fur trim. It’s time to bring it out and play Santa’s Little Helper.
Christmas Lights
This is actually one of my favorite traditions of all time. It started in my family when I was a child. Every Christmas Eve after church, we would drive around town and look at all of the holiday decorations. It just really gives you a chance as a couple or as a family to spend time together getting into the spirit of the season.
Snuggle by the Fire
When all of the work is done, the presents are wrapped and the kids are in bed, relax with your sweetie. Turn the Christmas tree lights on, light a fire, and snuggle up on the couch.
