This entry is all about one of my favorite topics Christmas music. Thanks to my friend Linda I found this cool web site that allows you to put in random words and then it randomly generates them into a mix. That's how I made the bottom half of the paper. Can you guess all of my favorite carols? There are a total of 10. The journaling reads: I just love Christmas Carols. I sometimes forget that not everyone likes them as much as I do. Like when it’s barely into November and I have the “all Christmas music” station dialed in on my car radio.
My favorite carol is “Adeste Fidelas” sung by Nat King Cole. It always reminds me of my dad singing in the choir at church.
I also forget that others aren’t as fond of my singing the Christmas carols as I am. When I was 9, the church choir director asked me to not sing so loudly. I smiled and said “but I know all the words?” She replied, politely, “Yes, dear but just because your daddy sings in the choir doesn’t mean you can!” I now torture my kids with the iPod on and singing carols as loud as I can. They know the pain the choir director felt but I just keep on singing!
It's getting closer to gift time! I spent a fair amount of the weekend working on gifts both buying and making. It relates right to this entry. Paper is part of an awesome pack of Christmas papers I picked up at Michael's yesterday from American Crafts. The embellishments are from Soft Spoken. The journaling reads: When we are at home our family opens the stockings first and the presents under the tree after we have breakfast. This year since we will be at the Palmers we will probably do the presents right after stockings since the twins will probably be so excited they won’t be able to wait.

great layouts
totally loving the christmas music page
My friend and I went to a Christmas concert this weekend where there was a little boy just belting out the words, totally off-key. It was the sweetest thing! Sometimes enthusiasm is more important than skill, you know?
Love your pages!
