I want to make a decorated Christmas garland for on top of the entertainment center. Michelle doesn't want it. But if I make it maybe she'll like it. :D

With so much hate and crazy in this world, I'm sure glad to have my Christmas happy place to come to. :hohat:

Sadly no Christmas bells here. I love old movies where the go out to ring the church bells to ring in Christmas. What a wonder it must have been to hear them. :bell1: :carolbells:

I hope you all are doing well. Michelle and I went to Hilton Head Island on Friday and Saturday and had a really great time together. We went to the beach both days and did a little sight seeing and shopping. I even found 3 or 4 Christmas stores. One of them kept their store so cold I thought it might snow in there. I'm back at work today but still dreaming of a white Christmas.

Be blessed my friends!



So glad you found Christmas on your summer break. :scene:

I personally love Christmas garlands. I've been know to drape them over or wrap them around anything that will stand still. joyelf

I was so tired when I got in last night that I forgot to lock my chickens up. I have never done that before. I couldn't believe it when I looked out my Kitchen window and saw my backyard full of them. Thankfully the dogs were out so they kept the wild critters away. When I passed them they gave me that tired look like you owe us lady because we were up all night working. They'll be a little something extra in there Christmas stockings for sure. :thumbs:

Watching the Christmas Story episode of The Andy Griffith Show. Probably my favorite Christmas TV series episode of all time. :snowjump:

No Christmas Bells for any of us. Very sad that a beautiful Christmas tradition has passed for all but a few of us. Still, our hearts can always remember the beautiful bells of Christmas Past. :carolbells:

Chickens stay close to home because they know where they are fed! Your dogs are they working class herders? They deserve a little extra Christmas reat too. :D
