5 Days Left Until Christmas

Only 5 days are left until Santa makes his yearly run! And the elves are very busy right now! Everyone is now making the last-minute toys. And to help speed things up they are given lunch and dinner right from the production line so they won’t waste much time. And many of the animals are helping with simple tasks like painting. It’s a very busy time right now!

Christmas Song:

Sleigh Ride is a popular light orchestral piece composed by Leroy Anderson. The composer had the original idea for the piece during a heat wave in July 1946; he finished the work in February 1948. I really liked the Leroy Anderson version Sometimes having no lyrics can make a song!

Adult/Child Gift Ideas:

Since it’s too late to buy things online and have them shipped before Christmas. I have found a couple of ideas for a last-minute Christmas gift. Today, you could easily get a gift card. Every store has their own gift card you can buy. Or you could go online and make your own personalized gift card at: http://www.giftcards.com/.

Christmas Charity:

Noah Pozner was among the children who died in the shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary on Friday, December 14, 2012. The funds received will be used to provide counseling services, set up an education fund, and provide basic needs for the children at this time of grief. Noah leaves behind his twin sister and three other siblings, and is the youngest victim in this horrible tragedy. You can support the Noah’s Ark Of Hope Fund by donating at the link. http://noahsarkofhopefund.eventbrite.com/.
