Did someone say Christmas Time?

I hope all had a grand Thanksgiving. We sure did - full of family conversation, turkey & pie, and smooth airline travel. We missed the Chicago airport fiasco by a hair (thank goodness!). This time of year is always superb.

Now on to having a Holly Jolly Christmas. What makes this "the best time of the year" for you? For me it's gathering with family and friends for conversation and traditions, lighting a fire in the fireplace, listening to Christmas tunes from my childhood, singing and kisses underneath the mistletoe, feeling the spirit of Christmas, enjoying hot chocolate, looking at Christmas lights (it's neat to see them from an airplane), and riding in the car with the heat on full blast.

Christmas stockings already? Fun! I'm glad you guys had a nice Thanksgiving - we missed you. We have no fireplace but we definitely have hot chocolate. Let's get together!

Did you go to see your family for Thanksgiving?

P.S. I would like another Lawrence Welk Christmas Johnson style, please. CLASSIC.

So who's this Jess character and why does he have a tube sock stocking? Is the economy really that bad?
