I'm a very good role model for my children (at least while they're around, watching me - after the kids are in bed and I'm alone with all of the junk food in the house, that's another story! ) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobby Rico Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 I was wondering how many different countries Santa is visiting on behalf of the forum this year ? I bet he is racking up some good amount of air-miles. We are putting up are Christmas Decorations tomorrow hopefully. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek just put up our Christmas tree this afternoon, and the kids decorated it - here's what it looks like: As you can see, there's already one gift under the tree - the fossil gift that Viola received from her Secret Santa!!! Notice that it's still unopened - Viola is going to be patient and wait until Christmas Eve to open it And this afternoon our Northern cardinal couple visited our backyard (probably ahead of the snow-and-ice storm that's supposed to arrive early tomorrow morning and last until Monday morning) - here's a photo of the male cardinal: Isn't he lovely???!!! 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

France, Morocco, Netherlands, Germany, Canada, United Kingdom, Australia, Portugal, the U.S. of A., and of course Texas ( that's big enough to be considered a country all by itself! ) Nothing from Asia this year. We still need to work on getting some participation from Antarctica though. Maybe next year. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viola made that ornament with her Brownies group. As for William - there's no photo of him on the tree, but he did make that painting of our family that's hanging on the tree - he made it when he was at daycare. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes we use them for our art exhibitions but it nice to use as a home cinema on occasions especially because we don’t have a TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also like the theme song by Annie Lennox and Al Greene - because of the movie, "Put a Little Love in your Heart" always makes me think of Christmastime. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
