MeRrY ChRiStMaS!!!!!


YES! my dear friends, we at the Stoneman home start celebrating Christmas the DAY after Halloween.

(with some convincing on my part of Mr Stoneman)


....now, for all you Thanksgiving lovers out there, be not put off by my apparent "passing by" of the beloved holiday, but rather, see it as I do, as part of the CHRISTMAS SEASON!


To me, Christmas would not be Christmas without Thanksgiving...to me, its like everyone starts to get what I've already been GETTING the past month! Its like people have realized that YES! happiness should be spread for longer than just those 28-ish days after Thanksgiving. then they catch my vision....


Who's with me?!

At first when I clicked on your blog, I thought, oh cute new blogger! Remi accidently put up Christmas colors. But no, it was no accident. LOL. You crack me up.

My only regret is that I am number 2 on the comment block. We're with you! Who can NOT be with you? Weirdos.

From now on if I'm in charge of choosing to sing a hymn at any sort of church function it will be a Christmas one.

You are simply amazing! What a way to think about it! I feel like I should start getting my Christmas decor up and enjoy it for a whole month longer than usual. That's when I like how my house looks the most :) I am SO with you!! Now, to convince the rest of them :)

Um, let it be known I was listening to Christmas Music on 94.5 when I came to pick you up, but feared mockery - so I changed the station.

Need I say more?

BOO YA I am with you.

I'm not usually one for following the crowd, but this is kind of catchy. I think we'll start singing Christmas songs in preschool tomorrow. Thanks Remi!

Lindsay Rondo said...

That's awesome! I love that idea! I can't stand christmas songs for too long but why not just consider thanksgiving as part of the season! great idea!

Britt said...
