May 15, 2013 Yesterday was a big day at my house - we finally took down our Christmas lights. I figured it was time since it was warm enough (I hate taking them down in the winter) and my son Titus asked why they were still up, so I figured if he was noticing than it was past time! I can't be the only one who still had Christmas lights up in Twin Falls though.
January 3, 2013 We are three days into 2013 and if you still have your Christmas decorations up...well you are a lot like me :) I actually never took my Christmas lights down from 2011 and right now it is way too cold to go outside to de-decorate, so it is safe to say that stuff will be up for a while!
January 2, 2013 The holidays are officially over and for the first year we hosted Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years! I am happy to say that my family and guests did not overstay their welcome...in fact I was sad to see them go.
It's hard to believe the holidays have come and gone in a matter of weeks, which means all of a sudden our "binge eating" is going to be frowned upon. It also means it's time to think about taking down our festive decorations. This can be a bummer not only because it's like getting rid of all seasonal cheer, but we also haven't the slightest idea how to get rid of our Christmas trees. Luckily, we've discovered a step-by-step instructional guide that walks us through this process in a painless manner.
The holiday season is usually a momentous time for laughs, cheers and smiles, but this kid's reaction, while still happy, was a little different. He might not have been too psyched over that initial gift, appearing a bit apathetic, but the second one surely got to him, resulting in a response no one expected -- especially the parents.
December 29, 2012 Christmas has passed and is now a distant memory...except for the hideous tie, clothes, or decorations you were so kindly given. What are you waiting for? Return that stuff for some money!

Everyone knows Christmas Day is all about tearing open presents, spending time with loved ones, gorging on lots of good food and celebrating the holiday spirit in general. Even though most of us have got the holiday thing down by now, some folks out there might not be aware of some of the unusual and history-making events marking Christmas Day and Christmas Eve in the past.
