It's crazy how quickly Christmas is coming. Tomorrow we are expecting 15 to 20cm of snow in Etobicoke (close to Toronto for my American friends). Today, while Mary was sleeping, my wife and I did the ginger bread house. Next year we will include her. She's only 10 months, so we decided she's just a little too young.

Tomorrow afternoon before the storm arrives, we are going to The Country Club for brunch and Mary will get to meet Santa. Very exciting stuff.

Also, I found a real photo of Santa and his reindeer flying above a city (included above). It's proof of the big man and his wonderful magic.
 
Hope everyone had a great Saturday. Carolina has an ear infection as I kind of expected. Mike was spending the weekend with his best friend who was down from Lancaster to visit, so my parents traded off with me so I could go to Philly and enjoy the Christmas things with my brother and cousin. We went to the Comcast Center, Christmas Village at City Hall and Dickens Village and light show at Macys. It was a lot of fun as I have never been to any of it. We took the train over instead of driving.

My parents took Carolina to Historic Smithville. They said she had a blast and was so excited. After they came home and went to Panera Bread. They said she seemed much better so I am hoping the cold air did her good,

Have a great night everyone

Morning MMC! It's a full blown Christmas weekend. Going to get some food for the big Christmas Eve dinner today, a little more Christmas shopping and begin wrapping while watching more Christmas shows. No wonder I love this time of year more than any other. Rollins is up and around. I can't believe how he jumps so high. It's crazy. I'm not sure if it's normal. He can jump from the floor on top of the dining room table without a running start. When he stands up against me and lets go he "hangs in the air" standing straight before finally landing back on the floor. It's weird. My brother thinks we should put him in the circus. Have a great Saturday!

You guys should start a show!

 
Good Sunday morning, Christmas friends!

We have shopped all weekend, and I am BEAT! We spent hours last night at a nearby Tanger Outlet Mall. I can verify that there is very little of interest at this mall for a dude. At least not enough to hold his attention for 4 hours. Ugh. I did find a kitchen tools store, and I stayed there most of the evening, at least when Nancy and her sister weren't making me take bags to the car LOL.

We're going to mama's for lunch after church, then I have to go pickup a piece of furniture she bought and take it back to her house.

I hope y'all have a great day! :D
 
Hey everyone. It's another day closer to CHRISTMAS! We are going to my Uncle's tonight for TWD mid-season finale and having dinner there like we do every 2 months or so (yet seems like yesterday I told you I was going and it's already been 7 weeks since we went). I think next Sunday we're going to hang out with my other Uncle...that's after Thursday my work Christmas party...Saturday 5AM at the airport to get my brother...and then my final exam on the Tuesday after...so from late this week through early next week it's going to be a bit busy which is why I am trying to slow things down. Have a great day!
 
Merry Two Weeks Until Christmas!

(so hard to believe)

I will be spending my first Christmas ever not in the snowy UP of Michigan, but in the desert heat of Arizona, as I spend it with my daughter and son-in-law. We have a full week planned, so it will be fun, plus it's an unwritten rule that my daughter and I will spend each Christmas together as long as the Good Lord allows :)

We are already making plans for next year's Christmas to be spent back north, we're Northerners through and through...but we have this Christmas to add to our annual parade of memories.

Have a great Sunday, everyone. I have the hot cocoa and two versions of A Christmas Carol (Alistair Sim ; George C Scott) ready to watch.

Make it a Christmas Sunday!
 
** CHRISTMAS SEASON 2016 DAY 29 **


Good Morning, Guys!

Ah. The TWO WEEK mark.
It -- is -- here!

Days to Christmas Day: 14 (Yep. Two weeks from today, alright!)
(How did this point come so fast? The magic of Christmas, possibly??)


Quite chilly yesterday, abeit sunny and calm. No precipitation, fortunately, or it likely would have been of the frozen kind.
A repeat today, then a warming trend.
This morning has commenced here at 28 degrees under promising skies.


Have a Super Sunday, Everyone!
(I haven't given up on the Panthers yet despite the apparent hopelessness of their situation. Not until they have been mathematically eliminated!)

Thanks Crown! Just 2 weeks from today!!!
 
Good Sunday morning! Feeling somewhat better but still not 100%. I have some errands to run this morning and I hope to get the Christmas tree finished afterwards. Really late on that this year. Tonight our management team is meeting at a restaurant, we've done that the past couple of years, it's like a tradition now. Today is a sunny and COLD day and snow will start sometime tonight and continue tomorrow. Looks like it will be a white Christmas this year. Hope everyone is having a great weekend.
 
My dear Christmas friends...the Christmas music is on, the coffee is hot, it is 30 degrees outside....and I hear a baboon behind me. Yes, a baboon. Bambina is acting like a baboon. Don't ask me, I don't know. For the most part, it is pretty festive and Christmassy...except for the zoo animal....who has started transitioning to a wolf.....I don't know...

We went and did a little shopping last night. I think it is fun to be out and see everyone in the middle of the hustle and bustle of Christmas....we still have a little bit more to go...but we will wrap that up this week.

I'm gonna do a little Christmas cooking today and watch a few movies. School has one more week. We give tests and get out at 1:30 all week, so it will be a pretty good week. I hope visit again before tomorrow. Yall have a great day!

Two excellent versions! (Don't forget Sir Seymour Hicks, though!)
We watched the 1956 musical version, "The Stingiest Man in Town," last night, followed up by the Blackadder version.
