Here are a few suggestions for awesome things to do in Reykjavik, Iceland that is especially awesome in December: Wrap yourself in all your layers of clothes, take a romantic walk in down town Reykjavik and try to find all 13 hidden hologram Santa Clauses around the city (they will be hiding in windows and on buildings!).
