The holidays this year will be all about spending quality time with whomever you’re safely quarantined with. So, gear up to take a much-needed break from work and your busy schedule to focus on what truly matters: the magic of the season. There are Christmas cookies to bake, homemade hot cocoa to sip, and backyard snowball fights to be had. These activities will call for some of the best quotes about the holidays that capture all of the merry and bright feels.

Even though holidays and major life events are looking very different this year due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, many of the traditions you love can still happen. As of Dec. 4, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that you stay safe at home when celebrating the winter holidays with only your immediate household. Getting together with anyone other than those you’ve been quarantining with can increase the risk of spreading or contracting the coronavirus.

Taking that into consideration, you might plan to have virtual holiday movie nights with your best friends or decorating gingerbread cookies at home with your housemates. All these festive moments will still be special, and can be captured with selfies and screenshots to post on the ‘gram, along with some holiday season quotes.

Pair a heartwarming holiday saying with that sweet pic of your housemates gathered around the dinner table on Christmas Eve, or wearing matching Hanukkah jammies on your family FaceTime. A good caption will come in handy for your gingerbread house pic and snuggly snaps by the fireplace with your pup and some mulled cider. Since you'll be very busy celebrating and snapping away, consider these captions a Christmas gift to you. That way, you'll have plenty of time to enjoy the season, and have fun toasting, unwrapping presents, and making the absolute best of an untraditional holiday.
