On the Fifth day of Christmas Buddy the Elf said to me:

"We elves try to stick to the four main food groups: candy, candy canes, candy corns and syrup."

and because I couldn't pick just one:

"The best way to spread Christmas Cheer, is singing loud for all to hear."

On the Fourth day of Christmas Aunt Bethany said to me:

"Is your house on fire, Clark?"

On the Third day of Christmas Ralphie Parker said to me:

"I want an Official Red Ryder Carbine-Action Two-Hundred-Shot Range Model Air Rifle!"
Santa Claus: "You'll shoot your eye out, kid."

~A Christmas Story


On the second day of Christmas Kevin McCallister said to me:

"This is extremely important. Will you please tell Santa that instead of presents this year, I just want my family back. No toys, nothing but Peter, Kate, Buzz, Megan, Linnie and Jeff. And my aunt and my cousins. And if he has time, my Uncle Frank. Okay?"

~Home Alone

 

  Happy December! And warmest holiday wishes to all!

I love, love, love Christmastime and to joyfully welcome the season I will be quoting my favorite Christmas movies for the first twelve days of December.

On the first day of Christmas George Bailey said to me:

"What do you want? You want the moon? Just say the word and I'll throw a lasso around it and pull it down. Hey. That's a pretty good idea. I'll give you the moon..."

Thankful Thoughts

  Happy Thanksgiving!! I love this holiday, and this year there is much to be thankful for.  I am thankful for my new writing family that has grown out of Peggy Anderson's writing class.  I feel blessed to have gotten to know such insightful, intelligent and supportive fellow writers, who have helped me to grow immensly as a writer myself, and for that I am truly grateful.  And of course I am eternally thankful for my family, friends and followers whose endless encouragement and love keeps me moving forward and reminds me that passions are always worth pursuing.  With love, appreciation and gratitude, I wish a happy holiday to all!
