Merry Christmas, everyone! Thank you for your comments–on and offline–and for the wonderful friendships you’ve all given me this year. I thought today it would be fun to share some of my favorite Christmas songs, and I’d sure love it if you’d share yours too. In case you’re wondering, I believe that (other than my hymn selection), my choice of favorite songs reveals that if you cut me, I’d bleed cheese…
This song is proof I am my father’s daughter, and it remains my all time favorite secular Christmas song (and someone out there is going to make fun of me for it, but I don’t care):
I dare you not to keep singing this one when it’s over:
And a sampling from my very favorite Christmas album (which my husband hates, by the way):
And last of all, my very favorite Christmas song, as performed by my very favorite band (the song starts at about :35 if you want to skip ahead):
As my daughter likes to say, “Happy Birthday, Jesus!”

And P.S., because every good Southern girl loves this song:

Merry Christmas, Jodie. May you and your family have a joy-filled celebration. Thanks for sharing your favourite songs. There are so many wonderful ones; I’m not sure which is my #1 choice. I love “Breath of Heaven” but mostly you’ll find me humming the old standbys like, “O Come, All Ye Faithful” and Silent Night.

And a Merry Christmas to you, too, Carol! I have been singing “Joy to the World” all week long. Love the hymns! Hope your Christmas is blessed!
