I like that Devon. I also love All I want for Christmas. That's a family favorite. Two kids trying to get their divorced parents to reconcile. Kevin Nealan is in it as the scurvy boyfriend of the mom. Anyway, it's funny and sweet and of course the crazy plot of the kids works. There's a white mouse in it named Snowball. For some reasom my family, when they want to remember this movie's name, someone always says, "The one with the white mouse in it." Then we all remember, but I have a terrible time remembering the movie's name. A skiff of snow. I like that Devon.

Hi Pat...ah, Christmas, my favorite time of the year! We got 20 inches of snow between two storms in three days...gotta love a white christmas in New England! Now...to your questions: What is your favorite thing about Christmas? Sitting in my living room after the family has gone to bed with only the lights of my christmas village and tree and listening to holiday music (as long as my daily writing quote is done!) What is your favorite Christmas song? "I'll Be Home For Christmas"...growing up in a military family and serving myself in the US Navy, it always reminds me of those times when home was very far away. Favoite Christmas movie? Gotta go with the classic "White Christmas" but the 2006's "The Holiday" is also becoming a favorite! And how do you do your Christmas shopping? I tried to be like my mom and do the "months ahead" thing once, but then I forgot where I hid everything...we found wrapped gifts until the following 4th of July that year. Now I aim for getting it done by Thanksgiving for family that needs to be mailed across the country and this weekend is for stocking stuffers for my teenager --- then I am done! What a great post to come out of lurkdome!

I have noticed the closer it gets to Christmas the children seen to not mind as well. I can remember telling my son you better be good because Santa is watching you but that didn't really work. I think its cute. My favorite song is Oh Holly Night, very beautiful if done right and the Little Drummer Boy. I start my shopping about a month before Christmas, but don't seem to finish until a few days before it hits. Christmas seem to have come quicker this year for some reason. I've turned around and it is just one week away. My favorite part of Christmas is spending time with friends and family and the excitement in the small childrens eyes.

I'm always thinking about what to get people - I try for that perfect gift (and sometimes I actually come up with it) but I don't do a thing until after Thanksgiving - one holiday at a time lol. My favorite song is the Gift. I have the one that Garth Brooks sings and it always brings tears to my eyes. My favorite book is The Littlest Angel which actually makes me sob (although I am not a crier). I love the idea of people wanting to be nice to people. Happy Holidays!!
