Christmas Randomness

So this weekend I wandered around the mall (if you can call the pathetic arrangement of stores in Idaho Falls a mall), trying to get some Christmas shopping done. Sadly, I just got a couple things for dad. I just didn't know what to buy. That's why I've decided it's pointless to Christmas shopping unless you know what you are going to get. I got a few ideas, but here's the weird part, when I Christmas shop, I think I like to do it with people who know the person I'm shopping for (if that makes sense). I love to shop by myself, in fact I prefer it, but for Christmas I want others opinions. Like "oh do you think my mom would like this?" or "do you think this will fit them?" Anyway, I'm only made a small dent in my Christmas shopping this year, I better get on it, it's only 24 days until Christmas! That's why I know I'm going to make Jenn shop with me this weekend in Utah! I better start making a list!

Also, I do love Christmas music, it's been playing on and off since Nov. 1st! I do have my list of favorites:
O Holy Night
Jingle Bells (sung by Barbara Streisand)
Muppets 12 Days of Christmas
Silent Night (it makes me cry EVERY time I sing it!)
Carol of the Bells
The Christmas Song

Ok so mostly all Christmas songs I love, but there are a few I really don't like, in fact I skip them or change the channel:
Christmas Shoes
Santa Baby
Any hick Christmas song… like I heard this one called Camouflage and Christmas, sick…

What are yours?

Shopping?! Yes! And I will be sure to give my opinions. I DO know your family!

Favorite Christmas Songs:

J-I-N-G-L-E Bells By Frank Sinatra (you already knew that one)

This Christmas--Chris Brown (mmmm yes.)

And my favorite traditional is "Oh Holy Night" for sure! Glee has a good version on their new soundtrack!
