The good news is that we live what others sing about and what the movies write about. We have it all right here in our own backyard.

Spend Time with Loved Ones
There serious is so much to do here in Colorado this time of year. Some things take money, but there is plenty to do even if your funds are low.
Finding the best-decorated house, build a snowman, go sledding, or simply just watch the snow fall. My kids would always try to find matching snowflakes.

In all honesty, there's not too much you have to do to experience a "real" Colorado Christmas. We have it all.
