Christmas Countdown - 2013

[sugar142286]

OK!
This is it, rain or shine.

Must get to the coast this weekend to get the cottage ready for our first renters set to arrive at noon June 16 and this time I WILL need a countdown volunteer for Saturday and Sunday mornings.

First come -- first selected!

Have a safe trip!

That sounds fun. I'd love to see the movie!

Okay, here it is. Remember 3 little kids put this one together-not Rankin Bass material quite yet. Now they can move onto bigger projects, this is just a sample and meant to be silly. I love the way stuff just kinda jumps around in it. It's not even quite 10 seconds long!

You will notice that we have a Cowboy Snowman and Thanksgiving Turkey starring in this epic film? :lol:

My son-in-law works for a moving company and often is given nice items during the move. Yesterday he surprised me with 6 Christmas houses from Hawthorne collection! They were still in the package. I have something new to add to my Christmas village this year! That was so sweet of him to think of me!

Our little furry family member is still doing well. Maris has adjusted to home life very well considering she lived on the streets for the first year of her life. She is one happy little girl and we are thrilled to have her!

That was very nice of your SIL! Glad to hear Maris is doing so well.

Sugar, that sounds like a nice day! I have been watching a lot of Christmas movies lately. It makes everything seem cooler during the heat.

Christmasstar, it looks beautiful where your picnic was at!

Have a safe trip, Crown, and we look forward to your return!!!

Love it! That is cute.

It's only a matter of time until this film gets the big budget Hollywood reboot make over that is in fashion now. Once that new one comes out, there will be new interest in this one and you can release it in a special ediction DVD set. You can even have deleted scenes and get the kids to do commentary tracks! :lol:

Thank you for sharing.

Hot Humid Hot here in Kentucky 95 degrees.

Snowflake love your new Louanne Tribute. Miss Louanne so much.
Not able to post much because at work I cannot, but I bwant everyone that posts here on the countdown thread I read your every post and my thought are always with everyone. I feel as though you are my sisters or brothers.

Take Care

Great to head from you, Rob!

Good day, all. Hubby and I have another out of town meeting tonight and tomorrow night. It's not too bad since they serve dinner for a reasonable price. We had to go to Paradise last night, about an hour away. Having those meetings somewhat limits my time online for a few days, but I will try to stay caught up on the Countdown. I always have my computer on so I can check in quickly from time to time. TTYL

Have a safe trip!

My son-in-law got off work early today so the kids just left. We had a picnic out in the backyard, they played a little, then they made their first stop motion video. Maybe they can make the next Rankin Bass film! If you get into making those professionally they can take a very long time. This one took about 30 minutes to put together; take pictures, upload to computer, put in the movie maker, add the music and after it was complete the video itself was only about 10 seconds long! :lol: It's cute though!

Sounds like you guys had a fun day!

How did you know? :lol: Here is one of the deleted scenes.

Now George Lucas will step in and change it all.

Now that my big vacation is over, I am really looking forward to Christmas. I will be going crazy in July!

Continuing to pray for you all.

Good to hear from you, Track. I pray everything there gets better!

I have been pulling some screen shots to use as Halloween backgrounds from say "It's the great pumpkin Charlie Brown" as well, and I also downloaded a bunch that were free from Microsoft as well. I could try to send them to you if you wish, If you want, pm my your email address I'll send them to you.:-D

That's very kind of you!!

I do have Halloween & Christmas backgrounds & screensavers, even some other holiday ones I use. I just don't have a desktop countdown per say.

My favorites are from American Greetings!!

Good morning! Happy Pines Day!! Not much going on around here today. It's going to be a hot one! And strong storms later they say! A guy from our town here is a storm chaser - he has posted on his FB page today that we could possibly have 100 MPH winds! WHAT??? I hope he's wrong!!! They are saying the worst of the storms are supposed to come overnight! Ugh!! I better go & be safe at the pines - I'll sleep in the slide!!! HA!

Have a great day everyone!

Stay safe tonight, my friend!!
