I guess Christmas. We don't always go to see my family for the holidays but we probably will this year.
I am not looking forward to Halloween just because of all the candy. I can only eat so much turkey or pumpkin pie but chocolate is hard for me to resist.0 -
Halloween for the candy, Thanksgiving for the food, Christmas for the gift giving!
Also Black Friday because that's when I score all the stuff I wouldn't buy at regular price. Like my TV, I wasn't about to pay $700 for it, but $200? Yup!0 -
Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas!! Doing my holiday season dance!0

I used to be all about Halloween, but this year I am just not feeling it. I literally just had to overnight costumes for my boys - they arrive today.
I am really looking forward to Christmas! I can't wait! I just love the holiday! Decorations, giving. YAY0 -
Christmas again, finally.
My grandpa passed away 5 days before Christmas in 2010, and ever since then, I have been completely unable to get into the Christmas spirit (Christmas was his favorite holiday). 
But my sister had a baby in August, so this year I get to be the doting auntie/godmother and "buy all the things" for my niece.

I have never understood why people feel the need to pretend to like people, even family. Many people in my family know I don't like them. I make no bones about it. I just basically ignore their existence at family functions as much as possible.
Back on topic, Halloween is definitely my favorite. I love dressing up!

This year? Halloween and Thanksgiving are a tie. On Halloween, I'm seeing my friends and we're going out and then having a horror movie marathon, so that'll be fun. Also, all fall season, I'm very festive. I buy pumpkins, pumpkin candles, go to festivals, walk around Salem. Fall is just a really fun time for me.
Thanksgiving is tied this year because I'm seeing family that I haven't seen in years, and I was about 50 lbs heavier when I last saw them, so it should be interesting to see them. Also, we're meeting in San Francisco. So that's always fun.0 -

It depends on how drunk I am - at first I am snarky, and ask the salespeople for left-handed nut crushers, then I get sad, then I get angry and argue about what 10% off "really" means if you pre-inflate the prices, then I get happy, then my family puts me to bed in the back of the station wagon with a shopping bag to puke into. I love BlackFriday, or as I call it, every Friday!
I just work there... and depends on how drunk I am too!

So, we'll be the jerks with our porch light off yet again this year...not that that'll stop parents from letting their little brats ring our doorbell anyway. Don't these people know the universal sign for "*kitten* off* on Halloween?
I'm excited about Thanksgiving because food. I'm excited for Christmas just because of the holiday feels. This is the first Christmas where my husband and I are both employed full-time and no one is a poor college student. We haven't bought Christmas gifts for anyone in several years because of that, and this year I think we'll spend my Christmas bonus on little gifts for each other and next year's HOA fees. Ah, being an adult sure does suck sometimes.
Are you sure you don't like Halloween? Because you would make a perfect witch.0 -
Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday of the year. I love dressing up for Halloween, but Thanksgiving is all about family (and I confess, I love the food). We don't celebrate Christmas, and don't really make a huge deal about Chanukah...but I do enjoy the holiday season...the lights, the parties, the goodwill and cheer.0

All of them I get to work. I will try to work out with my mom and brother to have some kind of family meal. But I doubt it. Can't even go down to visit my boyfriend's family for Holidays. He works all the Holidays as well. But at least we both are working. I will have to make sure to spoil my dog for the Holidays..0

Christmas, because of the presents, my pink tree, candy canes, wrapping things, and making Christmas Crackers.0

Ditto- though mine typically includes puke-drenched hair and the morning after pill.
You know how to celebrate. I know who I want to pre-game with.0 -

Halloween. It's my first Halloween off in almost 10 years AND I finally talked a friend into doing a "couples' costume" idea that I've been wanting to do forever!!!! I'm so excited! Other than that, I am excited for all of the upcoming holidays. I love Thanksgiving, and I am overflowing in the blessing department. Christmas is so much fun now that I am a grandma...Delia is 4 and one of those aforementioned blessings. And New Year's EVE is a crazy work day for me, but New Year's Day always motivates with the potential and possibilities of newness. 0
