Christmas Advent Blogging

Christmas advent blogging has returned to a "louannsplace.com" near you! :-) You may or may not remember that for the past several years I have made an attempt to do special blog posts during the advent season. A couple of the attempts were successful, and others were less so when the season got busy, the blog was ignored. But, if you want, take a look at the archives for each year, November and December. My favorites were to go through words of familiar Christmas Carols and to talk about playing Secret Santa at work. Well, Secret Santa ain't happenin' this year. But I have really been hitting the Christmas Carols hard already. (Yes, yes, I'm the one who complained about early Christmas ads on TV....)

My goal is to present to you a YouTube video of a Christmas Carol each day (or close to it!) between now and Christmas. I am having fun looking them up. Some will be fun, some serious, some festive, some silly, some sacred, some secular. To kick off this event, I'm appropriately starting with "It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas". It is, though, isn't it? This video shows Christmas scenes from around the world. Enjoy!



If you have some extra time, try some of these other videos:
* Peanuts - this one shows favorite scenes from the Peanuts' holiday special. It's been around for years, hasn't it? :-)
* Perry Como" - If you enjoy classics, this is for you.

Enjoy!! And check back tomorrow!
