Thanksgiving is over, so it's time to start getting ready for Christmas! Here my 1st Christmas card video, set to some free Christmas music that I found here:  https://www.freexmasmp3.com/

I found some interesting new holiday freebies online, which I will share here. Here's an address where you might be able to get a free Christmas tree, in the US:

And here's information on where you can apply for a permit to cut your own tree, in BC:

 Aren't we all looking for Christmas gift ideas, especially ones that won't break the bank?

Well, here's a few ideas: Select a good photo of the family, 8 x 10s are generally around $1 & many places have free offers from time to time. Select a pretty frame from the dollar tree & voila, a lovely gift for someone on your list.

For anyone who has access to a printer. Home-made calendars, with family photos. You can get an excellent free calendar program, here: https://photo-print-calendar-from-yokohama.software.informer.com/

Here's an excellent idea for someone who loves cooking &/or baking. Holiday-themed oven mitts, with matching hot pads &/or dish towels.

Or coffee mugs, in a small gift basket or bag, along with a small bag of coffee, or packets of hot chocolate, candy canes or other Christmas candy.
