Spreading Christmas Cheer...

Every time I want to add another string of lights outside the house and hubby thinks we've done too much...I remind him of this house a few streets over from us. Now THIS man loves Christmas! He gets started right after Halloween and has it all finished by Thanksgiving! There was so much, that I couldn't get it all in one picture, so I had to piece it. Click on it to enlarge!


Elf Yourself!
I saw this on Heather's blog and was cracking up, so I knew I had to do one of our family! Click HERE to see the video...then take a minute or two to make one yourself and let me know so I can come check it out!

While it's running, you just have to hit your "print screen" button (should be up above your number keypad) and then in a photo-editing program, open a new file and hit "paste" and there it is!

Hey, Tracy! Thanks for the birthday wishes. I just realized I didn't have you on my links...now I do! I sometimes think I have everyone covered & then find out I don't.

I love looking at Christmas lights, but we dont' do anything like that around here, too much work. I do love it when others do though. We always drive around during the holidays just to look at lights!

xo,
Rhoda

Cute elves you three make. I did this last year...lots of laughs. So funny. I might try it again this year later tonight.

Hugs!

Hey, Tracey, for some reason when I view your blog the past two days, I get a whole bunch of HTML code first, then your header, but then your blog looks weird with a white background, no sidebar... I use Mozilla Firefox. However, when I look at your blog on Internet Explorer it looks just fine. Isn't that the weirdest thing?

I'm just catching up on my blog visits...finally! I love the elf pic. You should definitely put that on your Christmas cards! :)

Love the elves! That's so cute!

Jean - I get the same thing on Firefox. I thought it was my computer - I'm glad to hear that someone else is having the same problem.

Tracey, I wanted to tell you that DS and I got a big laugh out of the Griswold thing! We've always called my DH "Clark", especially about his pursuit of the perfect holiday. DS said that his dad and your DH should have a "Griswold-off"! :) That's just too funny! :)

I can testify that the house you showed a picture of has TOO much stuff!

A girl I work with sent me the elf thing a couple of weeks ago...of me, Kate, Grace and Sweet Kitty! It was cute, so I turned around and did one of me and Christopher and sent it to Gina. It is a cute thing.

Thanks for the compliment on the poems. I posted another one on Baby Bangs at the request of another reader. There are so many good Christmas poems of hers (Grandma Bush) and she is 97 yrs old! Thanks again!
