It has been called the most wonderful time of the year, and for good reason. The joy of eating lots of food, hanging up lights, shopping, and watching those great Alltel commercials made from claymation is too wonderful to pass up. On the other side of the spectrum, however, are the things that aren't so obvious. Special things we all do called "traditions."
Every year on the day after Thanksgiving--or on Thanksgiving--my family gathers around the television set, snuggling in our blankets to watch "The Muppet Christmas Carol." The joy we get when watching Michael Caine sing with Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy, and all the other characters is one we share every year. When watching the movie, you get a feeling that you are apart of it in some funny way and you can't help but smile when hearing their joyful voices.
Although this Christmas tradition may not seem like a typical one, it suits us well and we love it….each and every year.
