Songs of the Season

I consider myself a bit of a Christmas Music connisseuer. Each year we wait anxiously for my dearly wedded Grinch to pronounce his blessing for Bing, Nat and Perry's crooning to fill the airwaves in and around our home with their holiday wishes of snow, roasted chesnuts, and good cheer. Until the benediction is said we are a covert, subversive faction. As soon as Ebeneezer is encased in his Acura, all the shackles are loosed and we can openly acknowledge our inner sugarplum. Here is a list of some of the tunes that dance in our hearts when the air gets to chillin'!

I was joking with Nicole after Thanksgiving, telling her that we were not going to decorate or listen to Christmas music until Christmas "officially" starts, on Dec. 25 and the 12 days following.

Needless to say, the house is decorated and I hear Christmas music as I am typing this.
