Are your gifts wrapped? Bags packed? Carols sung? Wreaths hung? Then it’s time to sit back and enjoy Christmas in whatever ways (traditional and new) you’ve chosen to celebrate with family and friends. As for me, my suitcase is almost packed for my family Christmas in Hawaii (sadly, this isn’t likely to become a tradition, but even once is pretty cool). Given that my fellow blogger and I will be making the most of our sans-snow holiday, Off-key Duets will be on hiatus for the next week. But, we leave you with a message about the reason for the season recited by a Christmas character who I enjoy even more than Santa (and all about the real “character” of Christmas).
So there you have it, Charlie Brown. That’s what Christmas is all about.
And since I’ve failed for yet another year at sending out Christmas cards, I’d truly like to wish everyone reading this a merry and blessed Christmas celebration. Mele Kalikimaka!
Merry Christmas to you and Heather as well Jen! We love Bing Crosby singing Mele Kelikimaka and it is usually the first Christmas song we play each year. My kids grew up with me playing it and they have it as part of their Christmas traditions now. Have a great time in Hawaii. Is your dad footing the bill for this? Enjoy your family and the warm breezes.
