~My little home town has a Christmas Festival in which all the characters from Dickens Christmas Carol makes an appearance and walk the streets handing out their collectible picture cards and telling the kids about themselves. It really gets you in the Christmas spirit of things~
I have a really busy day ahead of me today so I will comment later. Thanks for commenting.
