Favorite Christmas Things

Here are some of my all-time favorite Christmas... It's Beginning to Look a lot like Christmas, Blue Christmas, The Drummer Boy, Carol of the Bells, All I want for Christmas, Santa Baby, My Only Wish (this year), Have Yourself a Merry Christmas, etc.... there are a lot more!
Our family has a tradition of making cookies all through the week of Christmas... I can't convince them to start early :) (like now). My favorite cookies are the peanut butter ones with kisses in the middle! And you can't go wrong with FUDGE :)

What are some of your traditions? I LOVE to take pics of the snow when it comes... I will probably post a ton of pictures when it starts to snow :)

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light
From now on your troubles
Will be out of sight, yeah

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make the Yuletide gay
From now on your troubles
Will be miles away, oh ooh

Here we are as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore, ah
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us, once more, ooh

Through the years we all will be together
If the fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough, oh
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now, ooh

Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us, once more, oh

Through the years we all will be together
If the fates allow, oh yeah
But 'til then we'll have to muddle through
Somehow, oh yeah, oh ooh oh
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now
