Now is the best time in the world to listen to music. I love listening to Christmas music as so many of you do too. Every year I try to buy a new Christmas CD to add to my collection. This year I bought Josh Groban's CD called Noel. I really like it. Other favorite CDs are one by Amy Grant and a Celtic Christmas CD. It's a fun tradition to listen to Christmas music.
Other traditions kind of evolve and become locked in as you pass them on to younger children or the next generation. That's what happened to a Wee Sing Christmas video that I bought years ago. Every year my children would watch it and love it, but as they got older and older, they began to watch it so they could make fun of it! Now the grandchildren have to see it each year. But wait, I forgot. The VCR doesn't work. Yeah, a reprieve this year!
Do you have some favorite Christmas CDs or movies that you watch and listen to each year? Pass them on-I'm always looking for new Christmas CDs to buy.

I really enjoy the album "CHRISTMASTIME" by Hilary Weeks. Her original work by the same name, as well as "God Bless Your Way" are my faves on the album, but she does a great job with some of the traditional songs as well, blending beautiful emotion throughout.
ReplyDeleteAs for movies, I manage to watch "Meet Me In St. Louis" with Judy Garland nearly every year. It makes me laugh! I love the music, the story, the characters, and the tenderness of a traditional early 1900s family that works to stay together despite the strains of the day.
