A Covid Christmas Bucket List is what we are calling it since this Christmas feels much different. This Christmas is going to come with a lot more time at home, no Christmas parties to attend, no holiday celebrations to plan. This is also the first Christmas in years that I won’t be working and I want to make the most of my time at home with Henry. So I decided to come up with a Covid Christmas Bucket List so that this year, feels even more special than years past. I recruited my nieces for some help coming up with this Christmas Bucket list, and I love what they had to share!
