No Scrooges Allowed!

I know that so many people are against beginning Christmas anything before December 1st. I however am not in this camp. Actually if Lance would let me, I would probably have already got our tree. In my book, Thanksgiving is great in remembering what you are thankful for and getting together with good friends and family among a delicious meal. All wonderful things. However, it's really not a holiday like Christmas. I like all the commercial, man-created things for sure - the lights that brighten up these dark nights, the Christmas tree, the decorations, the presents, the shopping, the singing, Santa. But more importantly that we are celebrating the birth of Jesus, a little more significant than the pilgrims and native americans. Hence, the reason our blog is already in Christmas garb. And, that I have most of my Christmas shopping done. And, the reason why the first weekend in December we will be getting our tree and decorating it.
