Christmas Blossoms - 2015

[brent]

Again some amazing sings of Christmas everywhere! We went shopping around yesterday, with the goal of seeing all of the Christmas displays in stores, but I was quite disappointed. The big mall hasn't even put up any decorations yet. Will have to go back at the end of the month me thinks.

But Canadian Tire did not disappoint:

Yes, Martine! Canadian Tire has done a fantastic job with Christmas this year!

Well, now. That's more like it.
A Christmas to Remember is open!!!

1) Entrance.
(Up until a couple of weeks ago, This was "Halloween Alley")

2) Attractive storefront window!

3) Rack of wooden soldiers await a Christmas deployment.

So happy to see the return of A Christmas To Remember! Thanks for sharing, Crown! Hope Santa was just as happy as us to have it back in Crabtree!

Kindly Santa leaves his chair to greet a group of senior citizens who dropped by for a brief visit.

Santa looks so friendly! How could you not be when you have a setup like that? Beautiful!

Seeing Santa at Crabtree is one of the highlights of the Christmas Season for me!

Me too, I really have to get out soon to see the Big Guy. It really makes me feel like a kid again. Such a magical feeling.

Jysk is in the Spirit of Christmas! ...Jysk is a Scandinavian-style home decor store.

Don't mind the ladder.

I am sure you've all witnessed Wal-Mart's Christmas decor, but I haven't seen it here in a while:

It just isn't Christmas without red and green M&M's. I really hope to see the classic commercial soon!:

Scotch Tape - synonymous with gift-giving!:

The Great Canadian Super Store has all the Festive favourites!:
Candy Cane Ice Cream!!!!!

We purchased these! I have not yet been able to try them due to my tooth surgery. Friday can't come soon enough!:

My next purchase. Sounds delicious to me!:

Not good with trivia? We can do this instead:

Egg Nog. From the Superstore to my refrigerator shelf (Kim likes it - not me, I am afraid).
