Woke up to more thunder and rain. I love it! Have a great Sunday Christmas friends. :treegifts:

Mysteries at the Museum had a segment about how a mistake in a phone number led to the creation of NORAD tracking Santa. This is one of our favorite Christmas traditions. :scene:

I remember as a kid on Christmas Eve and the local news station would show the weather report and all of a sudden a flashing red light appeared on the screen. I knew that was my cue to get in bed quick. :sleephat: :santa: :rudolph1:

Tonight we are gonna start getting back into our school bedtime routine. It really feels like we are on the downhill slide to Christmas. :sled: :snowdeer:

Are My Ears On Straight?
I'm a little doll who was dropped and broken
Falling off my mommy's knee
I'm a little doll who has just been mended
Now won't you tell me please.

Are My Ears On Straight, Is my nose in place
Have I got a cute expression on my face?
Are my blue eyes bright, Do I look all right?
To be taken home Christmas Day?

When I first came here, Just a month ago.
Brought in by a little girl who loved me so.
She began to cry, 'Til they told her I
Could be taken home Christmas Day.

Christmas time is drawing nearer, And I'm getting scared
Wish I could see in a mirror, How I've been repaired.
I'll be called for soon, But I'm worried so
Will she love me like she did a month ago.

Are My Ears On Straight? I can hardly wait.
To be taken home Christmas Day

Goodbye Christmas in July. Tomorrow when we arise it will be the first day of August. East of the Mississippi that means a gentle walk to Autumn. Here........ :roll:

[i]We searched for one last Christmas movie to watch as the sun sets on CIJ but found none of the tv roster. Children - of all ages - miss ABC Family and the classic cartoons they once showed for CIJ. :| [/i]

I don't remember anything like that when I was a kid. That would have been so neat if our TV stations would have done that on Christmas Eve. Maybe I was already in bed. :think:
