Christmas

Statistically, there are portions of Idaho that get more snow than other places and some are more likely than others to have snowfall on Christmas Day.

Sound the trumpets. The world's most famous Christmas Tree has been chosen to light up Rockefeller Center this holiday season.

Technically, since the deer are controlling the sleigh, maybe Santa could manage just fine with a beer or two. Now, if he partakes in every home that lines him up with one, then we'd have a huge problem in the sky on Christmas Eve.

Holiday leftovers are very popular in our home. We sometimes have enough leftover food to eat for another week following Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner, but some of these foods pose a massive potential health risk if not thrown out sooner than later.

At such a fragile age, it's probably a good idea that Santa let the reindeer do all the driving.

While the rest of the world is arguing about 'real tree or an artificial tree' I'm over here more concerned with the best way to hang my Christmas lights.

The longing for salvation.

Free cookies and coffee, along with the chance to win one of five train sets in a raffle starting at 3 P.M., are all part of the free event. Photos with Santa next to the trains will happen from 2:30 to 3 P.M.

I’m old enough to remember when a real potato was used.

I wanted to see if the lasers were powerful enough to light up Balanced Rock, and what I saw after switching on the projectors still gives me chills when I think of it, even though the photographs don't do the experience justice.

In all my years living in Twin Falls, I've seen a great deal of holiday spirit. In my opinion, the best way to identify holiday spirit relates to decorations.

I still decorate my house with real hanging lights but I have to admit that the laser light shows seem like a much easier way to decorate.

Whether the pre-paid card was in the amount of $50 or $200, the funds are being transferred to the criminal and leaving the gift card worthless for the recipient.

This is the time of year when Americans are pulling their most proud, expensive holiday decor out of basements, attics, and totes to send their neighborhoods a message of Yuletide arrogance.
