Haul out the holly....

....put up the tree before my spirit falls again, fill up the stocking, I may be rushing things but...deck the halls again now...for we need alittle Christmas...right this very minute.......

Ah...the sweet words I remember singing in the chorus at St. Anthony's....one of my all time favorite Christmas songs...

The semester ended on the 12th with a final that many of my students are trying to forget about right now....and the preparation for Christmas began...

We got our Christmas tree, decorated the house, finished shopping, wrapped all the presents, spent the the past few days making Christmas cookies, pierogi and fruitcake (thanks to a nice snow day on Friday), had a visit from Santa & Mrs. Claus...and I believe we are just about ready for Christmas. The kids have thoroughly enjoyed playing in the snow the past three days. Maybe it will be a White Christmas???
Enjoy the pics.....and have a blessed Christmas...hope Santa is good to everyone!

Yes, that is a pierogi in each hand...
