Holiday greetings, my dedicated readers! I took a small break from my legacy to do what
I thought would be a simple Christmas photo shoot. That has turned into a series of
short vignettes about the generation 5 legacy heir and spare (and a few other characters
close to them). I hope that you enjoy what I‟ve come up with.
Part I
Let It Snow & Winter Wonderland
Oh, the weather outside is frightful,
But the fire is so delightful.
And since we‟ve no place to go,
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.
Sleigh bells ring, are you listening?
In the lane, snow is glistening.
A beautiful sight
We‟re happy tonight
Walking in a winter wonderland.
Gone away is the bluebird.
Here to stay is a new bird.
He sings a love song
As we go along
Walking in a winter wonderland.
Oh, it doesn‟t snow signs of stopping
And I brought some corn for popping.
The lights are turned way down low
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.
In the meadow we can build a snowman
And pretend that he is Parson Brown.
He‟ll say, “Are you married?”
We‟ll say, “No man.
But you can do the job when you you‟re in town.”
Later on, we‟ll conspire
As we dream by the fire
To face unafraid
The plans that we made
Walking in a winter wonderland.
Walking in a winter wonderland.
Walking in a winter wonderland.
Part II
Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light.
From now on our troubles will be out of sight.
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make the yuletide gay.
From now on our troubles will be miles away.
Here we are as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore.
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more.
Through the years, we all will be together.
If the fates allow.
Hang a shining star upon the highest bow.
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now.
Part III
All I Want for Christmas is You
I don‟t want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need.
I don‟t care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree.
I just want you for my own.
More than you could ever know.
Make my wish come true.
All I want for Christmas is you.
I don‟t want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need.
I don‟t care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree.
I don‟t need to hang my stocking
There upon the fireplace.
Santa Claus won‟t make me happy
With a toy on Christmas day.
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you.
I won‟t ask for much this Christmas
I won‟t even wish for snow.
I‟m just gonna keep on waiting
Underneath the mistletoe.
I won‟t make a list and send it
To the North Pole for Saint Nick.
I won‟t even stay awake to
Hear those magic reindeer click.
„Cause I just want you here tonight
Holding on to me so tight.
What more can I do?
Baby, all I want for Christmas is you.
All the lights are shining
So brightly everywhere.
And the sound of children‟s
Laughter fills the air.
And everyone is singing
I hear those sleigh bells ringing.
Santa won‟t you bring me the one thing I really need
Won‟t you please bring my baby to me.
Oh I don‟t want a lot for Christmas
This is all I‟m asking for.
I just want to see my baby
Standing right outside my door.
Oh I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know.
Make my wish come true
Baby all I want for Christmas is…
You.
All I want for Christmas is you.
The Bradfords and I would like to wish you a Happy Holiday season!
