Once upon a time there was a gingerbread house in a gumdrop forest. Inside that gingerbread house, lived a lonely and plain gingerbread man. He woke up on Christmas morning and decided to shower first. But his shower was not a regular shower. It was an eggnog shower, and when he emerged from his shower, he had an eggnog frosting. As he was combing his hair, he thought he heard a such a clutter out in the woods. When he opened the door to see where it cane from, it rained gumdrop on him and he had gumdrop buttons. For breakfast, he decided to sit down and have a bowl of icing. After breakfast, he had an icing mustache and icing paws and feet. Then he decided to go pick the tree. There was only one gift underneath the tree. It was a big gift that read: "TO GINGERBREAD MAN FROM SANTA CLAUS". So without even thinking twice, the gingerbread man tore the paper to threads. Underneath was a plain cardboard box, so the gingerbread man opened it up. He exclaimed "IT'S EXACTLY WHAT I'VE ALWAYS WANTED!!!" as a gingerbread wife popped out of the box. She said "you're just the sweetest looking gingerbread man I've ever seen." Then all of a sudden, through the gingerbread house windows popped 3 gingerbread children. The gingerbread man said, "I knew I heard something out there!" Then as if by magic, 4 more gifts appeared underneath the tree. The gingerbread family opened their gifts and feasted on a Christmas dinner of frosted sugar plum pie. And the gingerbread man was never a lonely, plain gingerbread man again. He was a sweetly decorated gingerbread family man.

TRUE STORY

So one year for christmas, i wanted a new laptop. I wanted a new one for school, we've only had a desktop since then and 4 people needed to use it. So i open one present and it's this odd looking box, and i'm like "what is that ??" they told me a "new router", so i was like alright that's cool, maybe internet will be better?? i was maybe 16, didn't understand that the router was meant for wifi. 

Next box i open is a mouse. So at this point i'm like alright i'm getting this new computer. I'm all sorts of excited to get this thing and they know it and i know and then they tell me "we couldn't afford a computer but maybe for your bday" i was like "naw u lyin."

So by the time everyone's done opening their gifts, there's no more presents under the tree, and i'm like tf and sitting there kinda sad ya know? but still making the best of the day lol.

A few hours later, maybe right before dinner gets done, DO YOU KNOW WHAT THEY DID??? They grabed a present from under MMMYYYYY bed and said "oh we almost forgot" and handed it to me. At this point i'm kinda like ok u guys suck, i expected clothes or something.  So i open it and IT'S MY NEW COMPUTER. 

Was sooo happy and that's what basically got my started in my arting carree!

It was the day before christmas and all through the adoption agency all the kennels were empty for all had been adopted. All but one. One small dog lay quietly on her bed. She had been washed and brushed and groomed yet no one had still taken her home. Choosing to pass by her cage for younger more active pups. It was almost closing time and she could hear the soft rustling from the front desk as they finished end of day paper work.

It was growing dark outside when her ears pricked as they heard the front door creak open. A man and womens voice could be heard and what was that? A small child too? She quickly stood on her old legs to peek through the wire to see who might just come. Before she knew it a small boy pushed through the doors and ran down the aisle. He stopped at her cage and reached out his hand, no hesitation to be seen. She stretched out her muscle and with one lick the adoption was set to be.

For one small old dog her christmas prayers were answered. A family of her own, snuggled up by the fire. There was the smell of hot cocoa and fresh sugar cookies in the air; soft christmas music playing. For an old dog like her this was heaven on earth. For one small boy his luck at turned a dog for Christmas! So much to be thankful for.

THE END!

Pixie Mischief

Pixie wanted to see the world so she hid in one of the toy sacks when it was nearly time for the delivery.  "Woah!" She yelped as she was suddenly picked up and thrown onto a hard object but then she grinned as she realised she'd done it.  She was going to see the world.  Now Dasher! Now Dancer! Now Prancer and Vixen! On Comet! On Cupid! On Donner and Blitzen! NOW DASH AWAY, DASH AWAY, DASH AWAY ALL!" Santa roared as Pixie felt her stomach roll and tumble as they whooshed with a speed.  It felt like air.  

"Oh!" Suddenly it didn't seem like the best idea she's ever had. Even worse than when she wanted to see what it was like to lick the North Pole or even to see what it was like to go through the wrapping line where she got stuffed in a box, wrapped up and ended up in a massive pile of presents.  It was only her constant shouting that got her out of that one and only just before she ran out of air.  

She jolted and realised they'd stopped.  Suddenly she was moving and jostling and she was sure her stomach was left somewhere above her.  She rolled away and was unable to see. There was a noise of crunching before a twinkling was heard.  Uh oh. Was there a dog nearby and was it friendly? 

Her eyes adjusted and she saw the sparkly tree she had missed before.  It was small but pretty and she wandered over to it amazed.  As she got there Pixie saw a half eaten cookie and roared with laughter.  "Oh, Santa."  She guessed he must have eaten the cookie.  Her stomach rumbled and she went to take the remains of the cookie as she heard a noise behind her.

"Hi. Are you my doggy".  

"um..." Pixie put on a large grin as she tried to think of a way out of this mess.  

WHOOSH

"HO! HO! HO! Silly me!" Santa whispered to the young girl standing wide eyed. "I left you Pixie and when really I should have left you this."  A little puppy appeared in the girls arms and she squealed. 

As Santa and Pixie disappeared up the chimney they listened to the conversation below.

"Shane how could you?"

"I didn't Trinity. I swear!"  

"Look mum. Look dad. She's called Pixie!" The parents sighed in resignation.

"Pixie!"  Santa looked at her before chuckling and shaking his head. "How do you do it?" Pixie closed her eyes in relief that he wasn't too angry. "Oh and your punishment will be..."

"I know.  3 months of reindeer poop scooping!"  and noises from all the reindeer in front sounded like laughter. 

How's this:

Last year, since I had a 1.5 year old, I decided to try and start a new holiday tradition, so that my son would grow up with it. We were going to make sugar cookies as a family, and decorate them together! Sounds fun, right?

Well, the first batch of cookies burned. I didn’t even make the dough by hand, I bought the pre-made roll of dough from Pillsbury, and followed the directions, so don’t ask me how.

The second batch fell on the floor when my husband got them out of the oven, and one of the cats decided that was a good place to lay down. So those went in the trash.

The third batch was baked to that nice golden color, they cooled on the kitchen counter… so it was time to decorate. Do I need to even tell you about the icing in my son’s hair? There were sprinkles everywhere. Do you know how many weeks later I was still sweeping up sprinkles? You don’t even understand.

We’re making cookies again this weekend. Wish us luck. I think we might need it.

This holiday season I'm going to visit my Grandpa in Canada. There, I will get to meet my new baby Sister Sam and spend some Funny time with my family I haven't seen in over Four Minutes. We are putting up a Purple tree this year in the Bedroom instead of the Kitchen. We are going Skating at a place called Amber Hill where we all go Skiing down 4 feet deep hills on these really cool Horses, so Fluffy! We're also going ice- Sledding there, I love it because the little shop serves this Angry hot Tea and they also offer a Mango flavor now. Then we are going shopping for Smoothie and last minute gifts! I plan on getting my Brother a kitchen Computer set since he loves to Fly and he's a Silly librarian. I also want to send my dog who's back home a skinny hat that has little red cats. I can't wait for X-Mas Eve, we're going to bake Harry Potter cookies and Cinnamon bread women, then we're going outside to have snow- chair fights, make houses and snow Spongebob 's. I will take many pictures to send back home in Ireland, including a picture of me flying in the snow and one with my new snow- coats on at the hot chocolate -rink. I love the Holidays, it's a time of running not walking, capturing colourful moments and spending time with happy people.

To the tune of Snoop Dog : 
Twas the nizzle before Chrismizzle and all through the hizzle , 
Nothing was stirring, not even a mizzle. 
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, 
In hopes that sweet little Saturnia would show up hopefully not covered in dog hair! 
Now she tiptoed her way around the barn with great care, 
To leave the new halter for the sweet little mare. 
And on her way out, she stopped and looked back 
To all the sweet ponpons had finished their holiday snack 
So off she went, with a smile on her face, 
Because it seemed that Christmas cheer had truly filled this place. 

Does this count? LOL

This family living in horse country had twin boys whose only resemblance to each other was their looks. If one felt it was too hot, the other thought it was too cold. If one said the TV was too loud, the other claimed the volume needed to be turned down. Opposite in every way, one was an eternal optimist, the other a doom and gloom pessimist.

Just to see what would happen, at Christmas time their father loaded the pessimist’s room with every imaginable toy and game. The optimist’s room he loaded with horse manure.

That night the father passed by the pessimist’s room and found him sitting amid his new gifts crying bitterly.

“Why are you crying?” the father asked.

“Because my friends will be jealous, I’ll have to read all these instructions before I can do anything with this stuff, I’ll constantly need batteries, and my toys will eventually get broken.” answered the pessimist twin.

Passing the optimist twin’s room, the father found him dancing for joy in the pile of manure. “What are you so happy about?” he asked.

To which his optimist twin replied, “There’s got to be a pony in here somewhere!”

Emmie's First Christmas!
When Emerald was just a few months old this little "Kitten oh Doom" didn't know that life was going to be soo much more exciting than making faces and chomping on things! One day boxes started to appear and the things inside them were shiny and easy to bat around with her bear cub paws. Then the following day another curious thing came out of one of the boxes! It was a tree that sort of looked like the ones outside the windows! The humans set it up and within a matter of moments she flung herself up into the branches! How high could she make it? To the top! With each branch climbed upon the tree shook and swayed a little. That never phased the adventureous kitten! That tree was simply the best thing that the humans made for her! Her people knew that once the ornaments and lights went up on the tree the chaos would continue. Much to Emmie's delight it sure did! Her little green eyes widened like saucers once the tree was fully decorated and lit up. Again she flung herself into the tree, this time seeing how many ornaments she could knock down or bite! Every day sometimes several times a day for the rest of the Christmas season ornaments would be picked up from the floor soon followed by the kitten's tiny war cry....and into the tree she climbed!

Now she's too fat to climb the tree. Instead she attacks the lower branches and death to any ornaments that aren't strong enough to survive, haha! xD

I had to try Blitz's mad libs idea:

Selecting a Tree

No Christmas season can be really bright unless you have a sticky tree in your bathroom. If you live in a city, you will see many vacant plots filled with hundreds of blueberries for sale. If you live in the country, you can get your own billboard right out of the forest. Go out with a shovel and pick, and when you see a furry tree you like, you can dig it up and plant it in a lamp. Then you can use it for two years. To make sure your tree is fresh, shake the branches and see if the squirrels fall off onto the bar stool. And make sure the tree is very blue. Nothing looks worse than a puce tree. Just follow these directions and you can have a perfectly beautiful moose in your front room for weeks. To decorate, place ribbons of lemonade and ginger snaps all around the tree. Merry Christmas!

This is a semi true story.

Once there was a princess, Her name was E. 
She danced with glee for it was ALMOST christmas time.

Her favorite time of the year.

She demanded a Tree decked to the gills on novemeber 30th.

She threw a royal fit when her servants did not add the star.
She stomped and screamed, Demanding a star. But the servants refused until Decemeber 1st.
When those long hours finally passed with some helpful sleep, her tyrant started yet again. 
Until a special knight with a head lamp came to her rescue. 
He hoisted her up with the help of a step stool and her magical chick fil a dress and together the tree was topped.

The princess was happy but the knight might have thrown out his back.

How the reindeers Saved Christmas

On a snowy Christmas Eve, Santa walked over to the reindeers and said merry christmas! ! He went on to say that it was too snowy to fly the sleigh this Christmas. The reindeers were very upset! After Santa left the reindeers started to talk. They decided that if they got the lights out of the kitchen they could see well enough to fly. Prancer, who was one of the smarter reindeers, said that they would need electricity though. Another reindeer decided that if they put enough extention cords together they could still go. But where would they get enough extention cords to reach across the world? They went to work! They decided if they took the extention cords from Koni, Sam and Binny's house they would have enough but they decided to take only the blue ones.

Everything went well but when they got to Florida all of the sudden the sleigh stopped in mid-air. Santa bounced out of the sleigh and fell in to Disney World. The reindeers didn't know what to do! First they flew back to find out why the sleigh stopped. They discovered that the extention cords got caught on the Empire State Building. They untangled the cord and then flew back to Disney World and picked up Santa.

So that is how the reindeers saved Christmas.

Once upon a time there was a little mouse. It scurried around the house 364 days a year, the only night it would rest was Christmas eve. On Christmas eve it would climb up to the fireplace mantle and snuggle amongst the Christmas decorations and wait. He would wait so paitently and watch the tree, just watching and waiting for Santa to show up and deliever the presents for the children of the house to open up the next day. Year after year though, the little mouse fell asleep before Santa arrived and every year he would wake up with a small treat next to him - because Santa never forgot anyone, not even a mouse.

This year though, was going to be different, for the little mouse had a plan. He had taken the time to carry coffee beans up to his perch, one at a time. He gathered up chocolate and sweets. He was positive that between the cookies and the caffeine, this would the year that he finally got to see Santa in person. So as he snuggled in and nibble on his treats. What the little mouse forgot, was a safe and warm spot mixed in with good smells, good food, and a full belly mean the ultimate level of comfort. Soon the little mouse was dreaming of sugarplums and faeries as Santa snuck down the chimney and delivered his presents for everyone, including the mouse.

There once were two little birdies, both silly and sweet. They played day after day in their little birdie world, and everything was fun and they had plenty of food to fill their tummies. Summer was their favorite time of year, when their mom would take them out to play. Slowly, like every year, the seasons changed, and it got colder and colder. The boys got restless and begged to go outside and play, but the wind would freeze their little toesies, so they had to stay inside. The toys mom bought were cool and all, but soon they broke and went away and so the boys fell into despair. It was a cold December eve and the two little birdies had given up all hope of ever having fun again. They crawled into their cages, hopeless and unenthusiastic about their future days. They woke up the next morning to shouts and laughs. They had forgot about Christmas and all its fun things! They flew to the tree and dove into the pretty boxes that mom had forbidden them to touch. They tore into the boxes, wondering what could be inside... Well, one did... The younger one got distracted by the bow. And to their amazement there were toys!! Toys of every color and shape and size, all for them!! They played all day and when they crawled into their cages that night, they thanked Santa for all and good night.
