"I'm dreaming of a White Christmas"... and more Christmas Classics!

While I know, many of us enjoy all the new Christmas Movies on TV... we still like to reminiscence and watch our favorite Classics, too!

For the next Four nights... (December 12- 15 on AMC!) we can start dreaming of a White Christmas along with Bing Crosby, Rosemary Clooney, Danny Kaye, and Vera Ellen. Oh, I adore this Christmas Musical. I know many movie reviewers out there are hard on it and put it down - but I love it! To me, it just wouldn't seem like Christmas, without hearing Bing Crosby sing that beautiful Christmas song, White Christmas...

The first Christmas Snow...

Yesterday, we awoke (in the Midwest) to our first Christmas Season dusting of Snowfall. By afternoon the snow was melting away, slowly revealing the green grass beneath it... and today, we only have a few patches here and there, leftover. I don't imagine they'll last long... but it was beautiful for a short time and certainly looked a lot more like Christmas!

As I write today, I am listening to one of the Christmas Music Stations on Direct TV... Holiday Traditions - Channel 801, and they are playing Bing Crosby singing White Christmas... isn't that perfect! Another Christmas Station I like on Direct TV is the Holly Station - Channel 819. They play Christmas Music all day!

" I'm dreaming of a White Christmas, just like the ones I used to know... "

Also, thinking of Bing Crosby, reminds me of his wonderful old Christmas Specials. They were always filled with beautiful Christmas Music and family. I caught only a little of the beginning of Carrie Underwood's Holiday Special on Fox. I was very disappointed in what I saw. The show opened with her latest song, Cowboy Casanova - NOT a great way to start a Christmas Show - she was plugging her latest hit with men in shredded looking clothing dancing around her. Like I said, I was very disappointed. I turned it off and turned it back on 10 or so minutes later to see her singing "Before He Cheats" in the tightest black leather pants and the cheapest looking Black platform heels. I turned it off once again. I am sad to see the change in such a wonderful tradition of Christmas Music Specials that should have a down-home warm feeling of the Christmas Season.

Bing Crosby Christmas Shows

Christmas Music on TV

Snowflakes falling, sleigh bells ringing, and a Surprise Visit from Santa Claus....
Many of us remember watching through the years... various Christmas Music Specials- some new and some Re-runs, whatever the case... they were all so beautiful, such as: Christmas Shows and Specials from Bing Crosby, Judy Garland, Perry Como, Andy Williams, Lawrence Welk, Donny & Marie, Doris Day, Barbara Mandrell, Kathie Lee Gifford, and so many more...

Tonight on Fox there is a new Christmas Music Special from Carrie Underwood. I think she has a beautiful voice, and I just love the song, "Jesus take the Wheel". (Although, I must share with you, I am not fond of her new Video of Cowboy Casanova.)

Also, starring in the show tonight is David Cook, Brad Paisley, and Kristin Chenoweth, and More... I'm hoping that it will be a fun family show.
