Find the Best Hot Chocolate
Every town puts up Christmas lights in December and there might even be some residents who go all out decorating their houses. Take the chance to wander around these hometown winter wonderlands and don't forget to kiss if you find yourselves under the mistletoe.
What's better than sharing a warm mug of cocoa when it's chilly outside? Spend the afternoon searching for the best cup of hot chocolate in your town - you could even create a ranking system ("Most Chocolatey", "Best Marshmallows", and so on!).
Christmas Movie Marathon Pick some of your favorite holiday movies - Elf, Die Hard, and Home Alone are all great choices - and snuggle under a blanket together while you marathon them. This is a great excuse to cozy up to your date on chilly winter nights. 12
