But on Christmas day it would be wonderful! <br /><br />We've done luminaries in some of the neighborhoods we've lived in through the years and they're always so lovely. When I was growing up we always had a party on Christmas Eve at our house with Dad's side of the family. We all had presents for each other and it was so much fun...especially as a child.Jan @ Notes from a Readerholichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11826756419192507981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3952534890282357396.post-7273921403891226682014-12-23T04:28:23.494-08:002014-12-23T04:28:23.494-08:00I agree about the Silmarillion.

I read The Silmarillion once and thought it was good but not like LOTR or The Hobbit, which are amazing! :) I have managed though to forget a lot about The Silmarillion, which in my opinion is unsurprising considering there's so much to remember. ;)<br />White Christmas is one of my favorite if not my favorite Christmas movies! In my opinion much better than Holiday Inn, which it's based off of I guess. Most people prefer Holiday Inn but I get so frustrated with it because I just feel like all of the characters are basically jerks. It still has great moments though. :)Lois Tinúvielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01113667315479652015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3952534890282357396.post-34624422544127023392014-12-22T18:13:38.246-08:002014-12-22T18:13:38.246-08:00The Avengers is so cute.
