Ring in the New Year with Joy: Celebrate Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2017

Celebrate the season with Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2017 wishes! Spread love, joy, and happiness to all.

Ho ho ho! It's the most wonderful time of the year again, folks! The holiday season is upon us and it's time to spread some cheer. As we bid adieu to 2016, it's time to welcome 2017 with open arms. So let's raise a toast to a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

First things first, let's talk about everyone's favorite part of the holiday season - the food! From juicy turkeys to delicious cakes and cookies, there's no shortage of scrumptious treats to indulge in. And let's not forget the eggnog, mulled wine, and hot cocoa that make the chilly winter nights so much cozier.

But let's be real, the holiday season isn't just about the food. It's also about spending time with loved ones and spreading joy. Whether it's through exchanging gifts, decorating the house, or singing carols, there's something magical about this time of year that brings people together.

Speaking of gifts, let's talk about the age-old question - what do you get someone who has everything? Fear not, my friends, for I have some foolproof gift ideas that are sure to put a smile on anyone's face. How about a personalized photo album, a cozy blanket, or a fancy coffee machine? Or if all else fails, you can never go wrong with a good old gift card.

Now, let's shift our focus to the upcoming year - 2017. It's a new year, which means a fresh start and a chance to make new resolutions. Whether it's hitting the gym more often, learning a new skill, or simply being kinder to others, now is the perfect time to set some goals for yourself.

But let's not forget that with every new year comes a plethora of new memes, trends, and pop culture references. Who knows what 2017 has in store for us? All we can do is sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride.

Of course, with a new year also comes the inevitable question - what will be the biggest fashion trend of 2017? Will it be oversized jackets? Statement earrings? Velvet everything? Only time will tell, but one thing's for sure - we're in for a wild ride.

Now, let's take a moment to reflect on the year that was 2016. It was a year filled with ups and downs, highs and lows, and more than a few surprises. From Brexit to the US Presidential election, there were moments that left us scratching our heads and wondering what the world was coming to.

But amidst all the chaos, there were also moments of hope and inspiration. We saw athletes break records and inspire a generation, we saw artists use their platform to speak out against injustice, and we saw communities come together in times of need. And that, my friends, is what gives us hope for the future.

As we bid adieu to 2016 and look forward to the year ahead, let's remember to be grateful for the good times, learn from the bad times, and always keep a sense of humor. After all, laughter is the best medicine.

So here's wishing you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! May your days be filled with love, laughter, and lots of eggnog.

Merry Christmas Happy New Year 2017: A Humorous Take on the Festive Season

It’s that time of the year again when we all get to don our Christmas jumpers, stuff our faces with mince pies and indulge in a few too many glasses of mulled wine. Ah, the festive season. It’s a time for giving, for sharing, for spreading joy and cheer. And also for making silly jokes and puns about Santa Claus. So, in the spirit of the season, let’s take a humorous look at Merry Christmas Happy New Year 2017.

Deck the Halls with Boughs of Holly (and a Few Too Many Lights)

We all know that one neighbour who goes all out on the Christmas decorations. You know, the one with the inflatable reindeer on the roof and the flashing lights that can be seen from space. Well, this year, why not give them a run for their money? Get yourself a few hundred more lights, a few more inflatables and a life-size Santa on the front lawn. Who needs subtlety when you can have a seizure-inducing light show?

The Joy of Gift Giving (and Receiving)

Ah, gift giving. It’s a lovely tradition that is all about showing your loved ones how much you care. Or, if you’re like me, it’s all about the thrill of tearing open wrapping paper and finding out what’s inside. So, whether you’re giving or receiving, remember that it’s the thought that counts. Unless, of course, the thought was “I’ll just get them a gift card from the petrol station.” Then, well, you’re on your own.

Santa Claus is Coming to Town (Better Watch Out)

There’s nothing quite like the sound of sleigh bells on Christmas Eve. Unless, of course, it’s the sound of a burglar breaking into your house. So, make sure you’ve got your security system up to date, your doors and windows locked, and maybe a few strategically placed booby traps just in case. After all, you never know who might be trying to steal your presents.

The Festive Feast (aka the Reason We’re All Here)

Roast turkey, pigs in blankets, stuffing, cranberry sauce, roast potatoes, gravy… is your mouth watering yet? The Christmas feast is the highlight of the festive season, and for good reason. It’s a time to gather with family and friends, to stuff ourselves silly and to fall asleep in front of the TV. Just remember, if you’re the one doing the cooking, it’s always a good idea to have a backup plan in case of culinary disasters. And if all else fails, there’s always pizza delivery.

Auld Lang Syne (aka the Song No One Actually Knows the Words To)

And so, we come to the end of another year. A time to reflect on the past 12 months, to make resolutions for the future and to sing a song that no one actually knows the words to. But hey, that’s part of the charm, right? So, whether you’re belting out Auld Lang Syne at the top of your lungs or quietly mumbling along, remember that the new year is a time for hope, for new beginnings and for making sure you’ve got plenty of aspirin for the inevitable hangover.

The Office Christmas Party (aka the Reason You’re Not Getting That Promotion)

Ah, the office Christmas party. It’s a time to let loose, to have a few drinks with your colleagues and to dance awkwardly to cheesy Christmas music. But it’s also a potential minefield of embarrassing moments and career-ending mistakes. So, if you’re planning on hitting the eggnog a little too hard this year, maybe consider taking a few days off afterwards. Just to be safe.

The Great Christmas Debate: Real Tree vs Fake Tree

It’s one of the great debates of the festive season: real tree or fake tree? On the one hand, a real tree brings that authentic Christmas smell and feel to your home. On the other hand, a fake tree is reusable, doesn’t shed needles everywhere and won’t die a slow, dry death in your living room. So, which one is better? The answer, of course, is whichever one you prefer. Unless you’re a fan of tinsel. Then you’re just wrong.

The Joy (and Stress) of Christmas Shopping

Christmas shopping. It’s a time for giving, for finding that perfect gift for that special someone. It’s also a time for elbowing your way through crowds of angry shoppers, getting stuck in traffic and spending way too much money. So, if you’re feeling stressed this festive season, just remember that it’s all worth it in the end. Or, you know, just buy everyone socks and be done with it.

The Magic of Christmas (aka the Reason We Keep Doing This Every Year)

At the end of the day, the magic of Christmas is what keeps us coming back year after year. It’s that feeling of joy and warmth, of love and togetherness. It’s the memories we create with our families and friends, the traditions we uphold and the silly jokes we make about Rudolph’s red nose. So, whether you’re celebrating Merry Christmas Happy New Year 2017 with your nearest and dearest or on your own, remember that the season is all about spreading joy and cheer. And also about eating way too many mince pies.

Happy New Year (and Good Luck Keeping Those Resolutions)

And finally, as we ring in the new year, let’s take a moment to reflect on the past 12 months and to look forward to the future. It’s a time for new beginnings, for setting goals and for trying not to break those resolutions within the first week. So, whether you’re planning on hitting the gym, quitting smoking or finally learning how to play the ukulele, just remember that it’s the effort that counts. Unless, of course, your resolution was to stop making bad puns about Santa Claus. Then, well, good luck with that.

So, there you have it. A humorous take on Merry Christmas Happy New Year 2017. We hope you’ve enjoyed this little journey through the festive season, and that you’ve found a few laughs along the way. From all of us here at [insert name here], we wish you a very merry Christmas and a happy new year. Now, where did we put those leftover mince pies?

Christmas Lights and Tangled Wires: The Start of a New Year

Let's be real, every new year is like trying to untangle a strand of Christmas lights. You have all these hopes and dreams wrapped up together, and some of them might not even work out. But that's okay, because you can always eat some Christmas cookies while you figure it out. And hey, at least you're not trying to fix a strand of tangled lights.

Santa Claus is Coming to Town (But He Forgot His Mask)

This year has been a doozy, and even Santa Claus isn't immune to the craziness. If he does make an appearance at your house this year, just hope that he remembered his mask and that he sanitized his gloved hands. And don't even get us started on how he's going to slide down all those chimneys with social distancing rules in place. Maybe he'll just air-drop presents from a safe distance?

The Year of the Zoom Christmas Party

Ah, yes, the virtual office Christmas party. Who knew that in 2020 we'd be getting sloshed on spiked eggnog in our own living rooms while wearing pajamas and trying to keep our cats from knocking over the tree? It's not quite the same as the annual awkward small-talk with your coworkers, but hey, at least you don't have to worry about spilling gravy on your nice dress.

New Year, New Me? More Like New Year, New Pajamas

If there's one thing we've learned this year, it's that sweatpants are the new black. Who needs fancy outfits when you can just wear the same pair of comfy pants for three days straight? Let's be real, we're all just hoping to make it through the holidays without gaining too much weight and without getting too many pajama-related gifts.

Countdown to Midnight (Also Known as 'Oh God, Where Did I Put My Champagne?')

There's nothing quite like the rush of counting down the seconds until the new year begins. And by rush, we mean panic. Did you remember to chill the champagne? Do you have enough snacks for the midnight munchies? Did you forget to text that person you've been meaning to text all year? It's enough to make you want to just start the countdown early and get it over with.

Winter Wonderland or 'Please, For the Love of God, Let This Snow Stop'

Sure, the snow is pretty for about five minutes. But then it turns into a slushy, icy mess that makes it impossible to navigate your driveway. Plus, if you're anything like us, you've already slipped and fallen on your butt at least once this season. Let's just all agree to appreciate the beauty from inside our warm, cozy homes.

The Year That Was...Something

There's no denying that 2020 has been a wild ride. From murder hornets to pandemic lockdowns to, well, you know the rest. It's like the universe decided to throw everything it had at us this year. But hey, we made it through (so far). And that's something to celebrate.

Auld Lang Syne or 'That Song We Only Know the First Verse Of'

Let's be real, none of us really know the words to Auld Lang Syne beyond the first verse. But it's tradition, so we'll all pretend to drunkenly bellow our way through it as the clock strikes midnight. Maybe this year we can finally figure out what the heck the lyrics actually mean.

The Gift-Giving Conundrum: To Regift or Not to Regift?

Ah, the age-old question. What do you do with all the gifts you receive that you don't really want? Do you regift them to someone else? Do you secretly donate them? Or do you just let them collect dust in the back of your closet? It's a tough call. But don't worry, we won't judge you either way.

Cheers to a New Year (Hopefully Without Murder Hornets)

As the clock strikes midnight and we raise our glasses to the new year, let's all silently pray that 2021 will be a little less...intense. Maybe we won't have to worry about murder hornets or hand sanitizer shortages or global pandemics. It's a nice thought, right? Cheers to a new year full of new possibilities, and hopefully a little less chaos.

Merry Christmas Happy New Year 2017: A Hilarious Tale

‘Twas the Night Before Christmas…

And all through the house, not a creature was stirring… except for me. I was up late wrapping presents and drinking eggnog. My cat, Mittens, was curled up on my lap, purring contentedly.

I decided to take a break and check my phone. I had received a text from my friend, Lucy.

Lucy: Hey! What are you doing for Christmas?
Me: Just staying home with my family. What about you?
Lucy: Same here. But we should get together for New Year’s Eve!
Me: Definitely! Let’s plan something.

I smiled. It was going to be a great holiday season.

Christmas Day

The smell of bacon and coffee woke me up early in the morning. I stumbled out of bed and made my way to the kitchen, where my mom was cooking breakfast.

“Merry Christmas, sweetie!” she said, giving me a hug.

“Merry Christmas, Mom,” I replied, taking a sip of coffee.

We spent the day opening gifts, eating delicious food, and watching Christmas movies. Mittens even got a new toy mouse, which she promptly started playing with.

New Year’s Eve

Lucy had invited me to a party at her apartment. I arrived around 9 pm, wearing a sparkly dress and carrying a bottle of champagne.

The party was already in full swing. There were people dancing, chatting, and laughing. I spotted Lucy across the room and made my way over to her.

“Hey, girl! Happy New Year!” she said, giving me a hug.

“Happy New Year to you too!” I replied, holding up the bottle of champagne. “Let’s pop this baby open.”

We found some glasses and started pouring. Just as we were about to toast, someone yelled, “Ten! Nine! Eight!”

We joined in, counting down the seconds until midnight.

“Three! Two! One! Happy New Year!”

The room erupted in cheers and applause. Lucy and I clinked our glasses together and took a sip.

“This is going to be the best year yet,” Lucy said, grinning.

“I have a feeling you’re right,” I replied, feeling optimistic.

The Aftermath

The next morning, I woke up with a pounding headache and a vague memory of dancing on a table. I groaned and reached for my phone, which was buzzing with notifications.

Lucy had sent me a text:

Lucy: OMG, did you see the video of us doing the chicken dance last night?
Me: Please tell me that’s not real.
Lucy: Afraid so. But don’t worry, it’s hilarious.

I cringed. This was not how I had envisioned starting off the new year.

But then I remembered something my mom had said on Christmas Day:

Mom: You know, honey, it’s okay to let loose and have fun sometimes. Life is too short to always be serious.

And she was right. Sure, I may have embarrassed myself a little bit, but at least I had a great time and made some unforgettable memories.

Farewell, Blog Visitors, and May Your Holidays Be Filled with Laughter

Well folks, it's that time of year again. The time where we all gather around the fire and reminisce about the past 365 days while sipping on hot cocoa (or something a little stronger, if you're so inclined). The time where we stuff our faces with cookies, candy canes, and fruitcake (if you're into that sort of thing). And of course, the time where we exchange gifts and spread holiday cheer.

As we bid farewell to 2016 and welcome in 2017 with open arms, I want to take a moment to thank you for taking the time to read my babbling blogs throughout the year. Whether you stumbled upon them by accident or were a loyal follower, I appreciate each and every one of you.

Now, let's get down to business. The holidays are a time for joy and laughter, so I thought I'd leave you with a few hilarious tidbits to carry you through the rest of the year.

First off, did you hear about the dyslexic devil worshipper who sold his soul to Santa?

No? Well, he got a lump of coal in his stocking. Talk about irony.

Speaking of Santa, have you noticed how he's always so jolly? I mean, the guy breaks into people's houses and eats their food. If I tried that, I'd be arrested faster than you can say ho ho ho.

And what's the deal with fruitcake? I mean, does anyone actually enjoy eating that stuff? It's like a brick disguised as dessert.

But enough about food. Let's talk about New Year's resolutions. You know, those things we all make and then promptly forget about two weeks later.

Personally, I've given up on them altogether. I mean, why set yourself up for failure? Instead, I like to make New Year's predictions. For example, I predict that in 2017, there will be a new dance craze called the Sasquatch Shuffle. You heard it here first, folks.

Now, I know the holidays can be stressful. Between the shopping, cooking, and family gatherings, it's enough to make anyone want to pull their hair out. But remember, laughter is the best medicine. So, if all else fails, just imagine your great aunt Betty doing the Sasquatch Shuffle and you're sure to crack a smile.

On that note, I'll leave you with one final joke. Why did the gingerbread man go to the doctor? Because he was feeling crummy!

Okay, that was terrible. But hey, I never claimed to be a comedian.

So, farewell blog visitors. May your holidays be filled with laughter, love, and plenty of cheer. And as we say goodbye to 2016, let us all look forward to what 2017 has in store. Who knows, maybe the Sasquatch Shuffle will become a reality.
