As I avoid homework a little bit more, I sit here listening to the Charlie Brown Christmas soundtrack provided by Daniel Lawrence who is a total jazz nut and thus in love with the soundtrack. Last Christmas Dan and I discovered our mutual love of A Charlie Brown Christmas and we watched it during finals week on my roommates laptop thanks to youtube.com. However, this year, Dan and I are moving up in the world and he recently purchased the Charlie Brown holiday set. Now we've watched the Great Pumpkin and this weekend A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving and I must admit, I fell asleep during both of them. Not that they're horrible but... they are not A Charlie Brown Christmas.
I love this movie because it reminds me of my daddio who does an excellent Snoopy drawing (which he used to draw on our napkins for our lunch boxes along with a little love note, yeah my parents kick your parents trash like that) and who also loves this movie. Each Christmas we'd watch it and I would love it. Just like mini chocolate covered doughnuts, A Charlie Brown Christmas will always remind me of my daddio and get me truly in the holiday spirit : )

There's nothing like Charlie Brown for the holidays! I do like the great pumpkin one too though.
You and can bond with the rest of my fam-damily over all the peanuts characters. It's Scott's fav, so tender.
