Christmas Lessons.
OkieMinnie Me has done some heavy lifting to provide us with a series of posts dealing with the background of many of the Christmas traditions. Here they are:
Bells, Nutcrackers, Candy Canes
St. Nicholas & Stockings, Santa Claus
Gifts ane Wise Men
Lots of interesting stuff there. Thanks, OkieMinnie.
When I was small and both parents were living, the best about christmas was, family and friends coming over to our house to eat and drink. Our house was huge. Both of my parents had 12 brothers and sisters and all of my cousins, man we had a big house full. Jim, have a great holiday season and a very safe and happy new year, Catfish.
