Time to put the writing aside for a bit and have a little fun with the upcoming holidays. You can check out the rest of the gang participating in the Be Jolly By Golly Blogefest!
Though room is limited this year, I've managed to find a spot to squeeze in a little Christmas Tree love.
Though summer is months away, it wouldn't be my tree without...
I was hoping to rent a real-life reindeer to help add a little authenticity to the decorations, but with the economy the way it is this was all I could afford.
Cannolis aren't typically considered a treat reserved solely for Christmastime in Italian culture . . . unless you live in my family. We're lazy, and cannolis take a LOT of work to make! So, needless to say, they don't last long!!
And last, but not least. . .
No one will ever be able to convince me that "A Christmas Story" isn't the best. Christmas. Movie. Ever.
Even if Ralphie is all growed up now.
So there you have it folks! I hope each and every one of you has a wonderful time for the holidays!! (No matter what holiday you celebrate)
To all my fellow Blogfesters, can't wait to get around this week and check out your entries!!

I can't believe I missed this blogfest. I'd seen it around but kept forgetting to look. Anyhow, great doggie. Hee...
Enjoy your holidays!
What an adorable dog. Your tree is beautiful. I do love "A Christmas Story". I will always see Ralphie with the big, round glasses.
Have a wonderful holiday!
Yummy! Now why do I have a cravy to make treats today?
Boy, this blogfest is killing me, and I didn't even participate. ;)
The dog! The dog! It's all about the dog!
A Very Merry Christmas!

I love your Orioles ornament!
Aw, Ralphie grew up kinda cute! How weird would it be to watch yourself in that movie?
Those Cannolis look amazing. Now I'm really hungry. And yes, Christmas Story is awesome.
You have such a beautiful Christmas tree. Your dog sure looks cute.
Love those cannolis!
Ralphie sure looks good as an adult.
I love your tree from the star down. The tasty treats look delicious. We could add Christmas Story to our list of must view specials ;)
Merry Christmas.
your tree is gorgeous, and LOL at your little dog! But OMG the cannolis!!! mmmm :d
Merry Christmas, Tracy! <3
Love the antlers, and the cannolis look like I could die and go straight to heaven after eating one.
What a cute little reindeer! Have a Merry Christmas!
the puppy looks so cute. great pictures!
Your dog is the cutest thing ever! So cute!! Love the tree and have a Merry Christmas!
Wow Ralphie still has those ice blue eyes...your dog is PRECIOUS!!!
Looks like you found room for quite a good-sized tree! HaHA, love the reindeer antlers on the doggie. Whoa--that Cannolis looks incredibly scrumptious and decadent, yeah, BABY! Thanks for stopping by my Jolly blog too, and glad I could make you laugh out loud, even though it was at work. LOL
Merry Christmas! from the Merry Christmas Carol, as you so punnily stated. Hehehe!
I love that you dressed up your dog (I'm not the only one!). A Christmas Story is one of my favorite holiday movies too. Merry Christmas!
What adorable dog and Christmas decorations! :-)
Christmas headbonks and purrrs for you and your dog -- Avalon (aka the cutest cat in the world)
Such an adorable dog! I'm a Yankees fan so I won't comment on the Orioles ornament (don't hate me too much!). Those cannolis look to die for! :) Merry Christmas!
Awww....your puppy-love is adorable! (and tolerant) Love his/her hat. :)
Wow. Who knew Ralphie would turn out kinda cute. (needs to wx/tame those brows bit. But pretty blue eyes.)
Everyone was so smart and took close-ups of favorite ornaments. I wish I'd thought of that. *bad Lola*
Merry Christmas, Tracy! Let's kick some major ass in 2011!
Love,
Lola
Oh, man! I knew I should have posted my A's ornament!! And those cannoli look amazing! :-)
Your dog is so cute!! And I love your tree!
Wishing you a very merry Christmas,

Hi Tracy,
Oh man, your dog is too cute! Reminds me of the dog in the Grinch, lol.
Your place looks great!
I LOVE your dog! I had a yorkie and I miss her so much. Terriers are loaded with personality...
Great tree and those cannolis look DELISH!
Merry Christmas, Tracy.

Your tree is beautiful. And I adore you doggie. So dang cute. Better than a real reindeer. ;D
Your dog is beyond adorable! And your tree is just gorgeous. Happy Holidays!
Your dog is the cutest dog I've ever seen! It's absolutely adorable!!! I love the hat. Neither my cat nor dog would let me anywhere near them with that sort of thing.
Your tree is also very pretty and those cannolis... they look amazing!!!!!!!!
Thank you so much for participating in our blog fest!
Your dog is sooo cute! My cat would have no part in dressing up for Christmas.
Cannolis are so yummy! I've never made them, but will buy them from time to time.
We will be watching A Christmas Story and eating chinese food for Christmas this year.
: )
I don't know where to begin complimenting this post. I loved it all: the tree, the dog, the amazing cannolis, the best Christmas movie (Ralphie turned out cute) . . . and again, the cannolis look really, really good. Everything is awesome! Merry Christmas.
Lose the ornament, take the cannoli (I must send you a Red Sox ornament.)
LOVE your reindeer! And those cannolis look delish!! Have a Merry Christmas!
Beautiful tree!!! Love your puppy!! SO CUTE!!! Merry Christmas Tracy! Thanks for stopping!
Your tree is gorgeous! And I love your little pup! Adorable.
Hope you have a Merry Christmas!!
