Christmas is coming Christmas is a wonderful, joyous time of the year - a time to spend with family and friends.
Our wooden tree takes all the worry of putting up Christmas lights in cold, windy weather.  It stands about 4 feet high and was cut from a piece of ply wood treated with outside paint.   Holes were drilled and each bulb was carefully pushed through from the back.  It is secured to the wall with cement screws.

Magic Reindeer Food Little children will love to sprinkle the magic reindeer food on their lawn on Christmas Eve. Use a mixture of any of these: oatmeal, bird seed, rice crispies, plus some coloured sugar to add some sparkle. Place the mixture in plastic bags and and add one of the poems. It is hard to find the original creator of these poems as they get passed around mailing lists, bulletin boards and from friend to friend and people tend to take off the author's name. Please remember  to use coloured sugar instead of glitter. This makes the mixture more friendly to wildlife. Make a wish and close your eyes tight, Then sprinkle on your lawn at night. As Santa's reindeer fly & roam This food will guide them to your home. For your gift to the reindeer and Rudolph too Your wish may be real, your dreams may come true. author unknown     Sprinkle on the lawn at night The moon will make it sparkle bright As Santa's reindeer fly and roam This will guide them to your home.
