I guess because I feel they are shortening Fall. I don't want a long winter. And maybe I don't want all the commercialism to start yetPuphigirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04239066075909772549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5347943771906170661.post-66862586298283596122014-11-18T07:46:42.548-07:002014-11-18T07:46:42.548-07:00Once when dad was out of town, mom took us to Chic...Once when dad was out of town, mom took us to Chicago. We didn't eat in China town that year. I don't even think I could drive then. It seems like we went again when I was a senior in high school. I cant remember. Then, after I moved back from Hawaii we did thanksgiving again in Chicago with baby Keenan and you guys. Even went to the Sears tower.

For me it just doesn't 'feel' like Christmas till after Thanksgiving. Although the lights up at Station Park did give me some of that good ol Christmas Spirit the other night.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09455892427542477240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5347943771906170661.post-14675420661477326062014-11-17T23:51:06.167-07:002014-11-17T23:51:06.167-07:00I don't decorate for Christmas until after tha...I don't decorate for Christmas until after thanksgiving, usually the day after. I just can't justify it to myself to decorate "early" since I'm planning for Thanksgiving and therefore not in the Christmas mood. I do love Thanksgiving as a holiday. I remember at least once going to our Uncle's house in Griffith for Thanksgiving. We went to Chicago two years in a row Ruthykinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03906507182384365998noreply@blogger.com
