My Bing Crosby White Christmas album. I love his style and arrangement of Santa Claus is coming to town with the Andrew Sisters. And of course no one sings White Christmas like Bing.
I struggle to find a skirt that would go with any colored theme I decided to use. I did find an elegant gold satin skirt with tiny flecks of green and red, it's perfect. I change my theme color...
Years ago we went and that was enough for us. Yikes, it's crazy. Interesting it started out as a shopping day for women who's husband's were hunters so the wives would have something to do and...
I am surprised to see the listing of Deviled eggs. My family never serves Deviled eggs for Thanksgiving, it's with our Easter dinner. Interesting.
Thanks for all the replies, I enjoyed reading...
Very nice.
But where do you put the gifts? When I was growing up my brother had a Lionel train set that always went under the tree and I remember I didn't like it because the gifts could...
Beautiful Tinkerbell, my kind of tree. I love it. Thanks for sharing.
A tip for decorators, if you love clear decorations for your tree, don't limit your shopping to the Christmas section in...
I do more than one tree and I do them all differently each year. The main tree in the living room, I'm thinking of doing just a red and blue ornament theme with clear lights. I've never done a...
I add to my collection of decorating items buying new when I see something I really like and it's a good price and buying at the Goodwill store.
I also change some of my tree decorations when I...
Thanks for the replies.
I also love the smell of Thanksgiving foods cooking. It's a wonderful family time together and I feel the Thanksgiving holiday is a very important day and not for...
Beware of white trees, some will turn brown after a few years. Not all but some. My parents had one, they bought my daughters each a white tree and only could use them for a few seasons...
Thanks for sharing your pictures. Yes, they are very pretty and sure to add some sparkle to your tree.
What is your favorite Thanksgiving main dish?
Also, favorite dessert?
For me it's Turkey breast and Pumpkin Roll.
LOL, I noticed that any thread about Thanksgiving, always ends up a thread about Football.
Oh well, it's tradition.
Thanksgiving is only 13 weeks away. I love this holiday. The smells of the food cooking, the family gathering, thanking God which is top priority and just being together is enough.

White Christmas is my favorite and it has to be sung by Bing Crosby, no one else.
And yes, Meet Me In St. Louis is a wonderful movie (I have the DVD) and I'm so glad I bought it.
I started in July for the 2009 Christmas. I like to get done as much as I can before the roads get snowy and icy.
My gifts were layed out under the tree. I never had a stocking. LOL, well at least we never had a mess of torn wrapping paper to clean up.
I always wrapped the gifts for my kids and they...
The best way to stop thinking of yourself is to do for others and that's what you did for her when you had her help you decorate the tree. When we get "down" it's usually because we are thinking...
When my children were small I always put candy canes on the tree. And I gave them to friends children who came to visit. But I also decorated my tree in the basic reds/green colors.
When I...
I started last week and plan to do a little every week. Of course some things can't be bought too early but I'm making a dent in my shopping.
Last week I started watching Christmas movies. TV is so disgusting with the constant advertisements and the poor quality of programming so I've been watching my DVD's. I love to pick and choose...
Webkinz have been a blessing for me to give. All my younger grandchildren have asked for webkinz and that is what I got them. Webkinz are nice, cuddly and educational. They go online and...
I had to smile about the last quote because I have done that in the past. Put the plug thingy the wrong way until one year I got a little smarter and wound my electrical cord around the tree trunk...
I usually start the day after Thanksgiving but things are different this year and I am starting it now.
Don't have the tree up yet but I have a few decorations up and working all this week on...
