Christmas 2015



Hi guys today I am writing about my Christmas 2015.

The day before Christmas Eve my grandmother came. Then on Christmas Eve my other grandparents came. We hung out and talked for a little while. Then we went to The Rumsey Tavern and ate diner. When we got home we had some dessert. We had cookies and ice cream. Then we went into the Christmas room and the kids opened presents from grandparents and each other.

My little brother got me a picture frame and some chocolate. My older brother got me a mascara and an eyeliner. My grandparents got me two books and 4 bath bombs. We saved presents from my other grandma until Christmas Day. After that my father read Santa Mouse. Then we went to bed. I normally have trouble falling asleep on Christmas Eve, but this time it was pretty easy. I woke up at about 7 and everyone was up and my grandparents came from their hotel by 7:30.






We went into the sunroom and we found ourpresents and then we got our stockings. We opened everything in the order that my parents wanted us to. My brothers got some clothes, video games, and a PS4. I got girly things like Pandora charms, makeup, pajamas, slippers, and a really soft blanket. We also opened our presents from our other grandma and she got me a really cool wall organizing rack. Then when our parents and grandparents opened a few presents we ate breakfast. The middle of the day we just played around with each other and our new stuff. After my other grandparents left my grandma and parents opened their presents to each other. After that we went to bed.






I had a pretty great Christmas and I hope you all did too!

The Christmas Carol

Hey guys today I am going to write about The Christmas Carol. This is one of my favorite movies to watch in December.

It starts out with Mr. Scrooge at Bob Marleys funeral. Marley was Scrooges partner in their business. 7 years later he goes to his company his nephew visits him. He invited Scrooge to his Christmas party but Scrooges response was bah humbug. Later when he went home he met the ghost of Marley. He warned him that he needed to change his ways or he would be doomed to carry the heavy chains as a ghost.

Scrooge was haunted my three ghosts. The first one was the ghost of Christmas past. The ghost of Christmas past was the first ghost to come. He was a candle and he took him to his old school. There we saw that the candle showed him left alone on Christmas. The next think he showed was older Scrooge being taken home by his sister. Next he showed a party on Christmas where he met a girl who he married. The last thing the ghost showed him was his wife divorcing him because money had replaced her.

The next ghost was Christmas present. It showed many people trash talking Scrooge. It also showed that tiny Tim was dying. The last ghost was the ghost of Christmas yet to come. This ghost showed that if Scrooge did not change his ways he would die. Since then Scrooge has been a very happy man. He was generous and kind. He became like a father to tiny Tim and Tim lived. He also went to his nephews Christmas party.



This is one of my all time favorite Christmas movies, I highly recommend it. I give it a 9 out of 10.

The Music Man

Hi guys! Today I'm going to talk about a musical I saw with my mother yesterday. The play was at The Old Opera House in Charles Town, West Virginia.

We got there about an hour & a half early. So we walked around town for a little while and then went to a restaurant. It was a little sandwich and ice cream shop. We ate diner and then had some ice cream. The actual musical started at 8. We got there at around 7:30.

When we went in it was pretty much empty. We found our seats and waited for the play to start. One of my parents friends was in the musical. Half way threw the show we had an intermission where we could go downstairs where they had some cookies and soda. There was also a cool little art show to look at. It ended at about 10:30.

The show was about a scam man that came to River City. He was pretending to be a music professor. He was trying to scam parents out of their money by putting their kids in the band. They were paying for things like instruments and uniforms. Then he fell in love with the librarian who also loved him. Her little brother was in the band. The mayor and town people hunted him down and took him to the city hall. At the city hall he was about to be punished but the band of kids showed up and the mayor and people forgave him.

It was a really good musical. I loved all of the music.

Christmas Decorations

Christmas Decorations

Hi guys! Today I am going to tell you about our Christmas decorations. I love seeing all of the different Christmas decorations in December.

So first I'll start with out trees. Every year we put up two trees. We have a small fake one in the living room that we put antique ornaments on. (It came pre-lit) We also wrap some gold ribbon around it and hang up different colored Christmas balls. On the top of the tree is a gold star. Lastly we put some icicles on the tree. Then we have a huge real tree in the sunroom. On the top of the tree we have our angel. We also have three strands of lights and some beads. Then we put all of our other ornaments on it.

Underneath or big tree we put a tree skirts. Then we have a few presents under the tree. Next we have our advent calendar. We've had the advent calendar for a long time. It's a really cute house that has our last name on the mail box. Then next to it we have a nutcracker. We also have a snoopy collection thing. In the corner of the sunroom we have a inflatable Santa.

Lastly we have our stockings hanging off of the table with our Christmas village on it. The village is Department 56- Dickens Village. We have a lot of different pieces like Scrooge & Marley's shop, Scrooges house, Fred's house, Bob Cratchit's house, and multiple churches. We also have many accessories like trees, streetlights, carriages, and woodland creatures. It's a very cute and fun village and it looks super cool.

So that's all we've put up so far for our decorations but there will be more to come!
