I think is a fairly easily question to answer. So what makes you guys feel Christmasy?

My thing is the lights being out around town. I dig it. And this is coming from an atheist/agnostic person.

BTW I throwing a poll in for the heck of it.

The smell of Christmas Trees, that wonderful piney aroma. Singing Christmas carols, and hearing my favorite Christmas music.

And a sure sign that Christmas is just around the corner is when Rudolph The Red-Nose Reindeer and A Charlie Brown Christmas are on TV!

Definitely Christmas music...but then again I listen to it periodically throughout the year!

I also enjoy looking at the decorations in the mall and around town. And who can forget all the great Christmas cartoons, like Rudolph or the Grinch..I always look forward to those too.

Falling snowflakes and sizzling fire logs...the sweet scent of pine needles and smokey fireplaces in the chilled air...hard candy ribbons...a child's smile on Christmas morning that makes your heart leap and your eyes mist...

The music is my absolute favorite, not so much on the radio or mall, I listen to my CD mixes in the car or at home.
But I love the lights, too.
Then there's the food...
