Christmastime is here...

[quaggy]

Every year around this time I quote the lyrics to some holiday related song and this year is no different. I've been listening to this song a lot as I walked the holiday-decked streets of DC, so it seemed appropriate. Plus, it really was the year of the Muppet this year.


One More Sleep 'Til Christmas

There magic in the air this evening
Magic in the air
The world is at her best, you know
When people love and care
The promise of excitement is one the night will keep
After all, there's only one more sleep 'til Christmas

The world has got a smile today
The world has got a glow
There's no such thing as strangers when
A stranger says hello
And everyone is family, we're having so much fun
After all, there's only one more sleep 'til Christmas

'Tis the season to be jolly and joyous
With a burst of pleasure, we feel it all right
It's the season when the saints can employ us
To spread the news about peace and to keep love alive

There's something in the wind today
That's good for everyone
Yes, faith is in our hearts today
We're shining like the sun
And everyone can feel it, the feeling's running deep
After all, there's only one more sleep 'til Christmas
After all, there's only one more sleep 'til Christmas Day 


And for those of you who never had a chance to see the Muppet Christmas Carol....

Happy Holidays to you and yours! (No matter which holiday it is that you celebrate.) May the coming year be blessed with good health, happiness and security!

They were playing an instrumental version of It Feels Like Christmas in the Disney Store when I was shopping the other day. I so rarely hear these songs outside the movie, which is sad, because they're really great Christmas songs. ♥

I know! And you've heard me talk about the music from Christmas Eve On Sesame Street, right? So many beautiful Christmas songs out there. Why do we have to be stuck listening to Paul McCartney's Simply Having A Wonderful Christmastime?

It was great meeting you too and I've friended you back. (Not that I'm all that great at posting very often!)
