Whenever I’m asked what my favorite Christmas song is only one song comes to mind, and that is “Some Day At Christmas” by Pearl Jam.
The song was originally done by Stevie Wonder but more recently Pearl Jam did a cover of it for the Christmas season.
I first heard this song in the car when I was a very little boy when I was with my mom. She of course played the Stevie Wonder version of it. I didn’t think much of the song at the time because back then I did not care much for music considering I was only four or five.
The only lyrics I could find for this song were for the Stevie wonder version. But it is ok because Pearl Jam used the same words.
Someday at christmas men won’t be boys
Playing with bombs like kids play with toys
one warm december our hearts will see
A world where men are free Read More »

Ever since I have moved out on my own, I have loved to decorate for Christmas. Christmas has always been my favorite holiday, just because of the decorations. My mom would take us downtown to see all the lights.
We’d go to this man’s house whose yard was lit up like Las Vegas. He even wore a lit-up suit to greet the kids. While I don’t go all out like he did, I’ve slowly collected decorations over the past few years. To me the most important part is the tree.
Usually the weekend after Thanksgiving I’ll go to the farmer’s market to pick out a tree, always some kind of fir. The tree goes up at home in the front of the house. The first thing I put on the tree are the lights. Read More »

Christmas is my favorite time of the year. I love the decorations and how pretty everything looks on the houses and the malls. The season also has this feeling to it of joy and happiness. It’s something that I can not explain but its definitely there.
I am twenty now and no longer believe in Santa Claus but I still get that old childhood feeling when I was younger on Christmas Eve and morning. My favorite Christmas song of old time is Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer sung by Burl Ives.

When I got married in 1975 I married in to a family that owns a ceramic shop. I made a lot of things for me and gifts for family members mainly at birthdays or Christmas because starting out and with kids well you know how things can be.
My mom had said that she would like to have a church but she could not make it because of her hands.
