MERRY CHRISTMAS!! The most wonderful day of the year has arrived, and we hope the day finds you in cheerful spirits and surrounded by love – whether it be distanced or nearby. 🎄🎅🏼✨🎁

We know that it can be difficult to #StayMerry, especially these past couple of years, but our holiday wish is that you can find merriment…even if just for a moment. Our mother, “Lolly Christmas”, believed in ‘staying merry’ even on her darkest days, and she is our biggest source of inspiration. We hope that this Christmas brings you comfort and joy because we could all use that right about now.

It’s officially Christmas Eve!  No matter where you are in the world, or however you celebrate, we hope your holiday preparations are jolly and full of cheer.

We will be celebrating #LollyChristmas-style, by baking cookies for Santa Claus, having a Christmas movie marathon and getting the house ready for the weekend before topping off the night with a reading of “The Night Before Christmas”. 🎅🏼✨🎁

Merry Christmas Eve!

Stay Merry,

I’ll be spending all day with my family; watching the Disney Parks Magical Christmas Celebration and movies, opening gifts, eating yummy food and just enjoying each other’s company.  It’s a blessing to be with people you love, because it hasn’t been an easy year and there’s been way too much loss.

As the song says, “Someday soon, we all will be together, if the fates allow. Until then, we’ll have to muddle through somehow. So have yourself a merry little Christmas now.” I hope you cherish every happy moment you can and #StayMerry.

Santa Claus is getting to work while I’ll be relaxing with my family and doing last minute prep before the big day! This year is, of course, very different for us — especially because it’ll be the first time we won’t be attending Midnight Mass at our church, but we will be watching from home. 🎄🌟

Christmas Eve Mass will air on NBC tonight from 11:30 p.m.-1 a.m. Viewers will be able to watch the Pope Francis-led mass from St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome.

How are you spending Christmas this year, and what do you do on the night before Christmas?
