WHO LOVES CHRISTMAS?

When it comes to Christmas I think everyone should decorate, especially the stores who want you to spend your money on their merchandise to make your loved ones happy on Christmas morning.
As I walked into Wal-Mart I saw a small Christmas tree and that was the end of their decorations. Is this all they can afford or do they just not care. I also went to Wendy's in Schererville, Indiana for lunch and as I sat eating it dawned on me that the songs that were coming over the intercom were not Christmas songs and as I looked around I did not see one Christmas decoration. I will have to take note today as I go out again, to see which stores have decorated for for this holiday. One place I know for sure that recognizes the time of year is Arby's in Schererville, Indiana. They have a beautiful manger scene positioned behind the counter where everyone can see it. It is a wonderful way to remind everyone that this season is not just about Santa and toys but the birth of Christ which I think people have put in second place behind Santa.
Let's make a switch, Santa and Christ and make things right.

You are so correct about this. I went to several stores with my camera looking for some Christmas shots.

We aren't spending Christmas at home this year so my decorations aren't up. But I couldn't find anything at any single store that worthy of taking a picture.

Now, with Christmas in ind and the true spirit I would like to invite you to join in on our Merry Christmas Celebration.

You can read about it on my blog. I do so hope you will sign up. We celebrated thanksgiving and had a ton of people sharing!

Have a great day Rich!
