Day 24 – On Christmas Day, ring bells to celebrate the birth of Christ. Such a glorious day calls for a glorious noise so ring all the bells you have loud and long.
While I think this is a good idea, I don’t know why I didn’t suggest something for today instead of tomorrow. Even though I always like to go bed early on Christmas Eve so Christmas Day can arrive sooner, there are a lot of things to do on the night before Christmas. (Check out these three websites if you want even more ideas.)
