the lights at the zoo
A trip to the zoo....lights at the Toledo Zoo are fabulous....my friend Diane and I bundled up, and went to see the lights...when we got their at 5:15 it was just getting dark, and not that many people....when we left around 6:30 it was wall to wall people....it was a nice night...they sell the best kettle corn.....so it's just a must to stop and buy a bag....

Oh Yes, I do believe in Sanata....

OH YES, I DO BELIEVE IN SANTA....
When I was just a little girl
I'd wish with all my might...
That I might hear those jingle bells
Ringing in the night...
A stomping and a HO HO HO
I'd know that he was real...
Oh yes, I do believe I heard
One of the reindeer squeal...
***
The room in which I spent the night
Was cold and filled with apples...
While hiding under the blankets so warm
I'd sneak a bite, well... just to sample...
I finally fell a sleep that night
With dreams of what I'd find...
A bride doll, perhaps with brown hair
She was a beautiful sight...
***
Christmas morning I'd wake up at dawn
And creep on down the stairs...
The tree was lit with colored lights
And tinsel everywhere...
I'd hear a tinkling sound from bells
Bells hanging on the tree...
Oh I do believe in Santa Claus
For my bride doll was waiting for me...

Christmas memories are so special....this really is the way I remember my Christmas's as a little girl....My dad made it all believable....from stomping on the porch while ringing bells, and he even made a huge wooden Santa display for our front yard, he added a motor and the arm waved at every one with music in the air....Christmas was simple back them...OK maybe not for my mom and dad...LOL...it seemed so sparkley....maybe that's why I love Vegas so much it's sparkley... The apples were really stored in our spare bedroom which was where I went to wait for Santa....and those apples smelled, and tasted so good..... I thought I'd share my Christmas poem I wrote, and in 25 days it will be Christmas again....and I wish I was that little girl back in the cold spare room with all the apples, waiting for my friend Santa Claus....

The doll I am holding in the picture is the one I rec'd and it has my hair on it..when I got my hair cut, mom had it put on a bride doll.....I still have the bride doll, and my hair is a couple of shades lighter than it is now...a bit of auburn in it....and yes it was natural curley...
