Mr. Christmas

My brother in law calls me Mr. Christmas. Unlike my wife and her family, who celebrate the Christmas season from Christmas to Epiphany, I celebrate year round. It is not unusual for me to listen to Christmas music in July. The year Therese and I were engaged, at Christmas time, I drove with my soon to be brother in law and his wife and 3 kids to visit his wife's parents. From there, we drove to meet my fiance's extended family down near the border. I brought dozens of Christmas CD's, we listened to all of them, even some Christmas stories. And ever since then, his oldest girls listen to Christmas music year round. Yes, I left my mark, and yes, I am sure they are thrilled with me. :) Well, maybe not. He does bring it up a lot, and always gets that look in his eye.... Anyway, here is a site where you can get your dose of the Christmas season: http://www.stormfax.com/dickens.htm So from Mr. Christmas to you, have a great holiday (holy day). Thanks for stopping by.
