They start playing holiday music, down here the day after Halloween. Every station on the radio and everywhere you go there is holiday music. The lights are around everywhere in the neighborhoods. It seems early to us, but we have come to learn that it is because there is no weather change that makes us shiver and say...the holidays are here, that the holiday season seems to take us so much by surprise. I took the lights out at Halloween, but my helpers were not ready to put them up.
Thanksgiving has come and gone and they are still avoiding the fun of putting up the lights. Our family is getting older and each year we have some sort of plan for the fun of the Holidays, today we plan to visit the lights at the Billy Graham library. There are live nativity scenes in various places. If I can get organized to figure out where to go next. I will just let my schedule planners keep the ball rolling for us. Miracle on Meadow Crossing Dr. is the story we write year after year. God is so good to us and we love remembering His mercies during this end of the year holiday season. Truly "the gift goes on!"
It is too early after Halloween but by Thanksgiving we really do need to see the lights just cause the darkness is depressing. This is where the Christmas videos help. You can make them watch all the classics ~ watch the tree & lights & decorations magically appear! I wish you the best holiday season:)
