Get rid of those trees
December 29, 2008
Christmas is over, folks. I don't want to admit it either but those old trees are starting to become fire hazards and it's time for them to go to the Christmas tree farm in the sky. Don't think of this as the end of Christmas. Think of this as a way to show your kids that you're a responsible sort of parent and get rid of your tree in the responsible way.

Best decorated neighborhoods in memphis
December 23, 2008
It's almost Christmas! Can you believe it?! If you're like most other people in Memphis, you love driving around to check out the Christmas lights that all of the different neighborhoods have to offer. Not only does the Zoo do a GREAT Christmas light show but Graceland usually puts on a heck of a light display as well. If you're willing to drive just a little bit then one place to check Read more...

Drift into Christmas
December 19, 2008
I sometimes think we expect too much of Christmas Day. We try to crowd into it the long arrears of kindliness and humanity of the whole year. As for me, I like to take my Christmas a little at a time, all through the year. And thus I drift along into the holidays--let them overtake me unexpectedly--waking up some fine morning and Read more...
The Gift That Keeps Giving
December 16, 2008
Tis the season for giving and no one knows that better than a parent. If you think about it though, how long will those gifts be loved and cuddled and then forgotten? I see too many friends of mine who seem to have forgotten two really great places that are Memphis originals where a membership costs about as much [probably less] than just one gift for one child. Why not give the gift Read more...
Warmth
December 12, 2008
Christmas! The very word brings joy to our hearts. No matter how we may dread the rush, the long Christmas lists for gifts and cards to be bought and given--when Christmas Day comes there is still the same warm feeling we had as children, the same warmth that enfolds our hearts and our homes. - Joan Winmill Brown Read more...
Five Toys You Should Buy
December 09, 2008
#1 Kid Tough Digital Camera - If this camera can stand up to the antics of my two year old then it can handle anything. Caroline loves to carry this thing around and snap pictures of the dog or the cat or her feet or, well, just about anything that gets in her way. A must for any kid who takes any interest in YOUR camera. #2 Color Roller - I honestly don't "get" why Cara loves this so Read more...
More great books for christmas
December 04, 2008
#1 He Came with the Couch - He Came with the Couch is a recent addition to Cara's bookshelf. Cara found the book while we were playing at Barnes and Noble and she wouldn't put it down so I ended up having to buy it. There was something about the "creature" that she seemed to love. I love the great illustrations and they help make this a book that I don't mind reading three times before tucking Read more...

A season of rituals
December 01, 2008
Well, guys, "that time of the year" is officially here. Most people around here didn't even wait for the turkey to be digested before they started putting up the Christmas lights and hanging the wreaths. For a lot of people, putting up Christmas decorations right after Thanksgiving is a ritual of sorts that they do every year. I'm sure you have holiday rituals that you do every year. Read more...
