i've been listening to christmas music since september. yeah, i know. i only have 1 christmas cd which happens to be my favorite (obviously otherwise i'd purchase another one). harry connick, jr.-when my heart finds christmas. turns out he has like a million christmas albums. i feel very deprived. anyway, now carson only wants harry connick, jr. all the time!! we listen to the radio sometimes but he just ends up wanting harry. i'll look into the rear view mirror to see him mouthing every single word. we were at a store the other day and they were playing christmas music overhead. of course, it was harry. and of course, carson yells, "mom!! it's harry connick, jr.!!" i was very proud. his cd just reminds me of making christmas treats with my family for our neighbors and his cd would be on repeat!! it seriously wouldn't be christmas without him!! enough obsessing about harry, but that's why there's a whole bunch of his christmas songs on here now, in case you were wondering...
i love christmas time. i truly am in a better mood ( i think) and seem to appreciate things more during this time of year. that, and i love giving gifts. not to mention receiving a few myself. i love visiting the temple lights with my family. i love the beautiful christmas songs, especially in church. i love, absolutely love going christmas caroling!! i've been learning christmas songs on my ukulele and practicing really hard so it will accompany me this year!! (still not good, but good enough for my kids!!)
christmas for children is so magical and i love seeing the twinkle in their trusting eyes when they see santa(especially when santa can call them by name), and on christmas morning. it makes me want to giggle and jump up and down for joy just thinking about it!! anyway, bring on the magic, giggles, jumping and don't forget the hot chocolate!! i hope everyone will have a happy, magical, meaningful christmas!!

as I was reading this I was watching the today show on channel 12 and Harry did a performance on there. I hope you got to see it!
You are so cute. I feel the same way you do about Christmas. I am so excited for it this year because Calvy is a little older and hopefully can appreciate it more. I am so excited to wrap up his presents and put them under the tree. I can't wait for Christmas Eve to be able to set up his "Santa" presents. Stalkings are my absolute favorite, if I only got a stalking each year, I would be so happy. This year will be our first White Christmas, and being away from family will make it hard, but we are excited to have our very own Christmas with just our little family, and hopefully a baby girl, :). Anyway, Merry Christmas!
blast!! i didn't get to see it, jen!! but i did see him the other night on david letterman. i never watch david letterman, but for some reason i did that night. now i know why!! just kidding. but seriously.
I think that's the only Christmas CD that I own is Harry C. It's a great one too! I think it's hilarious that Carter knows the words and loves harry too. I've always wanted to see him live!
oh cherisse how glad i am your weezer green background is gone, it hurt my eyes so much to read...but i love you!
Can't wait to hear that ukulele! Christmas is sooooooooooo great! Glad to have a DVR to record all those Christmas movies and watch them with the kids. I loved watching their reaction during Rudolph the other day. You make me want to go out and buy a Harry CD! My fav is an Osmond family one that is from the 70s! Oh and I love Amy Grant too!
Well said Cherisse! Carson has to be one of the funniest kids I know!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE Christmas time too. There is just something in the air that is infectious and people smile more and its contagious.
