CHRISTMAS IS HERE

"We ring the bells and we raise the strain

We hang up garlands everywhere

And bid the tapers twinkle fair,

And feast and frolic — and then we go

Back to the same old lives again."

"Like snowflakes…

our Christmas memories gather

and dance...each beautiful,

unique and too soon gone."

From our house to yours...

MERRY CHRISTMAS

to family, friends and Blog Buddies

"Christmas gift suggestions: To a friend, your heart. To a customer, service. To your enemy, forgiveness. To every child, a good example. To yourself, respect. To all, charity."
