Let's move out the pumpkins and bittersweet, and bring on the red and green! Oh, the red can go toward bright pink, and the green can be that wonderful fresh green we have all loved the past few years! But, be sure to include some colors and touches that make it very clear we are moving on from fall to Christmas! Possibly it is some polish, or sparkle or glitter...maybe we bring out the silver or gold. Trees, Santas, candy canes and bells...all so much fun and they help us enjoy, yes "savor" each season! It is very important that we create an atmosphere that helps us - and our family - to note the special passage of time by celebrating our beliefs and the special place our people have in our hearts. I'm ready to move on - Thanksgiving was great, it is always good to stop and remind ourselves of all the things, and people, we are thankful for. And now, let's celebrate! Over the top, wild and wonderful, warm and fuzzy...this great season goes from now till the wee hours of New Year's Day overtake us, and tell us to go to bed. Let's "roll out the holly"...for we "need a little Christmas, right this very minute - need a little Christmas, now!"
(I must re-learn those wonderful words - they are my holiday theme song!)
