In Spite Of The Cost Of Living, It's Still Popular.
Swallow a Toad In The Morning if You Want To Encounter Nothing More Disgusting The Rest Of The Day.
He Who Dies With The Most Toys Is Nonetheless DEAD.
A Picture Is Worth A Thousand Words, But It Uses Up Three Thousand Times The Memory.
**********************************************
Sixteen Things It Took Me 50 Years To Learn
1. You will never find anybody who can give you a clear and compelling reason why we observe day-light-savings time.
2. You should never say anything to a woman that even remotely suggests you think she’s pregnant unless you can see an actual baby emerging from her at that moment.
3. The most powerful force in the universe is gossip.
4. The one thing that unites all human beings, regardless of age, gender, religion, economic status or ethnic background, is that, deep down inside we ALL believe that we are above-average drivers.
5. There comes a time when you should stop expecting other people to make a big deal about your birthday. That time is age 111.
6. There is a very fine line between “hobby” and “mental illness.”
7. People who want to share their religious views with you almost never want you to share yours with them.
8. If you had to identify, in one word, the reason why the human race has not achieved, and never will achieve, its full potential, that word would be “meetings.”
9. The main accomplishment of almost all organized protests is to annoy people who are not in them.
10. When God who created the entire universe with all of its glories, decides to deliver a message to humanity, He will NOT use, as His messenger, a person on cable TV with a bad hairstyle.
11. You should not confuse your career with your life.
12. A person, who is nice to you, but rude to the waiter, is not a nice person.
13. No matter what happens, somebody will find a way to take it too seriously.
14. When trouble arises and things look bad, there is always one individual who perceives a solution and is willing to take command. Very often, that individual is crazy.
15. Your friends love you, anyway.
16. Nobody cares if you can’t dance well. Just get up and do it.

Christmas Eve, our sons open gifts from us. Santa comes that night.
Christmas Morning, sons open gifts from Santa.
And I cook, and cook and cook.
But, this year, I think my husband is going to cook a ham on the grill.

Sometimes, someone brings the gag gift, but in our family, we always bring thoughtful gifts (so no one gets shafted). It's funny when the group is larger and the gifts are high demand! It can get pretty fun!

On Christmas morning, hubby and I have an intimate breakfast, open our gifts, and relax with our coffee/hot cocoa. We go to visit his parents and then my mum in the afternoon.
It works well for us.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL!!

I like that. It's a good tradition. The book has been drawn in a little bit, and the binding isn't great. There's a rip in one of the pages... I've tried to find another one just like it, but no luck so far. Even if I did, I'd keep the old one, because it has so many good memories associated with it. :)

Christmas Day is coffee and opening gifts for the kids, then dinner at mom's (she is not as mean as me!)
In our neighborhood, we do luminaries.
At work, potlucks and the White Elephant gift exchange or Secret Santa gift exchanges.
I also love to listen to Christmas music such as Charlie Brown, Manheim STeamroller, Nutcr&cker Suite and Johnny Mathis. We always have to watch A Christmas Carol (We love the one with Patrick Stewart of Star Trek TNG fame) and It's a Wonderful Life. Sharing what we have with others is also a part of Christmas, especially with those less fortunate.

I know I'm late, but I thought I'd share. Every year on Christmas Eve I give my children (there are 5 of them) a new pair of pajamas. Thats all I give them from me. They sleep in these to wait for Santa :) Its just a little something that I think makes us have tradition as well as allowing them to understand that Christmas is about family and not how many gifts they can accumulate. The grandparents do just fine in that area!
