House approves ‘Merry Christmas’ bill
The Texas House gave an early Christmas present to those who believe the holiday has come under fire, unanimously approving Rep. Dwayne Bohac’s “Merry Christmas Act” on Wednesday.

The bill clarifies that public school students, teachers and staff may say “Merry Christmas,” “Happy Hanukkah” and offer other traditional winter-holiday greetings, as well as display Christmas trees, nativity scenes and menorahs on school property.

NOW that is the type of bill that needs to be passed in every state of the USA. Say it loud & clear: Merry Christmas!!! :scene:

Maybe I will send some emails up to Atlanta and let my congressmen know how I feel. :wink:
And wish them a big MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

And then they will say "This guy is crazy. Christmas Crazy!"

Just stopped in to say hello. Got a couponing for Christmas child shopping trip planned for this morning, then me and dd are off to spend the day with my Dad. He has some new kittens and she is dying to get her hands on them. :elfgrin:
Gotta survive one more week of school and then summer starts. Got lots of activities already planned, but they'll be plenty of R and R too. :D
Hubby started the biggest job of his career yesterday. It always makes me nervous when he starts a big job and I don't cheer up until the checks start rolling in. This job will carry him all summer so I am so thankful for it. Gonna be doing most of my Christmas shopping this summer. Woohoo!! :santa: :rudolph1:

Dd and I had a girls night in last night. After a nail painting party we snuggled up to watch movies. What movies did she find? Home Alone I and II. I was suprised they were both on last night. Love my little Christmas loving angel. :angelsnow:

I really enjoyed my visit with my Dad today. I helped him finish planting his garden and we got all his yard work done. I'm pretty tired tonight but so thankful for every minute I have him. Dd had so much fun with 5 fuzzy little balls of energy.
No good Christmas shows on TV tonight so we are watching Titanic. Love spending time with my family. :thumbs:

You're a good daughter CK, a huge blessing to your dad, and a great role model for Dd to follow.

With no Christmas movies on, titanic is a good one to watch.

My wife and I are watching Women's college softball today.
I know it's not Christmasy, but we really enjoy watching them play.
I root for Georgia and my wife likes to root for Alabama.
