Well.............I had to put all the new presents on my sleigh and carry them to their new home.

I did have some that wouldn't fit though. Aren't they pretty?

This is the page that I will put and interesting Christmas items.
The ones that I find during the month. My main Christmas page Annie's Christmas Page was exploding at the seams. I will still be adding links to the other appropriate pages though. So keep looking at all the pages and visit here again too. I thought I would change the look just a little on this new page. Variety is the spice of life. Right?

Recipe for Christmas Joy

• 1/2 cup Hugs
• 4 tsp Kisses
• 4 cups Love
• 1 cup Special Holiday Cheer
• 1/2 cup Peace on Earth
• 3 tsp Christmas Spirits
• 2 cups Goodwill Toward Man
• 1 Sprig of Mistletoe

• 1 medium-size bag of Christmas Snowflakes (the regular kind won't do!)

Mix hugs, kisses, smiles and love until consistent. Blend in holiday cheer, peace on earth, Christmas spirits and good will toward men. Use the mixture to fill a large, warm heart, where it can be stored for a lifetime, (it never goes bad!). Serve as desired under mistletoe, sprinkled liberally with special Christmas Snowflakes. It is especially good when accompanied by Christmas Carols and family get-togethers. Serve to one and all. ~Author Unknown~

Time spent shopping vs. worshiping

"Fascinating findings about the religious lives of Americans are constantly surfacing, and none more fascinating -- at least for this particular weekend -- than the claim that people actually spend as much time worshiping in the holiday season as they spend shopping." from Religion News Dec 1st, 1997

Mary's Dream

I had a dream, Joseph, I don't understand it, not really, but I think it was about a birthday celebration for our Son. I think that was what it was all about. The people had been preparing for it for about six weeks. They had decorated the house and bought new clothes. They'd gone shopping many times and bought elaborate gifts. It was peculiar, though, because the presents weren't for our Son. They wrapped them in beautiful paper and tied them with lovely bows and stacked them under a tree. Yes, a tree, Joseph, right in their house. They'd decorated the tree also. The branches were full of glowing balls and sparkling ornaments. There was a figure on the top of the tree. It looked like an angel might look. Oh, it was beautiful. Everyone was laughing and happy. They were all excited about the gifts. They gave the gifts to each other, Joseph, not to our Son. I don't think they even knew Him. They never mentioned His name. Doesn't it seem odd for people to go to all that trouble to celebrate someone's birthday if they don't know Him. I had the strangest feeling that if our Son had gone to this celebration He would have been intruding. Everything was so beautiful, Joseph, and everyone so full of cheer, but it made me want to cry. How sad for Jesus -not to be wanted at His own birthday celebration. I'm glad it was only a dream. How terrible, Joseph, if it had been real.
