A small thing that I do miss this time of year is the Christmas TV specials. Here in England TV isn't particularly linked to celebrating the Holidays. But I sure do miss My favorite animated specials (Peanuts Christmas--I alwas get teary-eyed when Linus says, "This Christmas Tree is alright Charlie Brown, it just needs a little love < right before bringing the tree to life by putting his blanket around it and a few decorations > ) I also like the Little Drummer Boy and of course, The Grinch who Stole Christmas. I even like watching Frostie the Snowman and Rudolf and The Year Without a Santa Clause. It's all part of my memories of growing up and getting into the festive spirit!
