"The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire)" by Pentatonix | Song & Lyrics
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like Eskimos
Everybody knows a turkey and some
Mistletoe help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight
They know that Santa’s on his way
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies
On his sleigh
And every mother's
Child is gonna spy to see if
Reindeer really know how to fly
And so, I'm offering this
Simple phrase to kids from
One to ninety-two
Altho' it's been said many times
Many ways
“Merry Christmas to you”

HOW TO MAKE A 3D CHRISTMAS CARD - ETWINNING
Use your scissors to cut out the six Christmas trees, tree trunks and stars.
Carefully fold all of the Christmas tree pieces, tree trunk pieces and star pieces in half.
Use your extra strength glue stick to add glue to one side of one of your Christmas tree pieces. Then line up another Christmas tree on top of the glue. Continue gluing all the Christmas tree pieces together one on top of the other.
Repeat step 4 using the tree trunk pieces and star pieces.
Cut a piece of blue cardstock in an 8 1/2-inch by 8 1/2-inch square. Fold it in half and then open it back up. Add glue to the back of the 3D Christmas tree, tree trunk and star and glue them along the inside folded seam of the open card.
NOW IT’S TIME TO ADD DETAILS TO YOUR 3D CHRISTMAS CARD!
A simple way to add ornaments to your Christmas tree is by using Avery round stickers. They have a plethora of different colors to choose from so you can use primary colors or neon colors. Add the stickers to each different section of the 3D Christmas tree.
Cut a strip of white paper or cardstock to place at the bottom of your 3D Christmas card. Fold the white paper in half and then glue it at the bottom of your Christmas tree.
You can use a variety of different materials to decorate the inside of your card. We went with snowflakes to give our 3D Christmas cards a wintery feel. For snowflakes you can glue on snowflake sequins, use snowflake stickers, or you can use a chalk marker to draw snowflakes around the inside of your card.
To finish your 3D Christmas card, use markers or pens to write “Merry Christmas” or any holiday message on the front of your card. Then fold your card in half and place it in a large envelope for the recipient.
When the card is opened the recipient will be delighted by the 3D effect of the Christmas tree inside. The best part, they can put the card on display somewhere in their home to add to their festive decor.

I love you.

Boom, bam, boom
Skip the rope,
Boom, bam, boom

Pink, brown, yellow, orange and blue
I love you
All together now....(x16)
Sail the ship,
Chop the tree
Skip the rope,
Look at me
All together now....

Queen Elizabeth II - birthday
Today as
The Queen turns 96, we’re sharing this photograph taken when she was
2-years-old.
Then Princess Elizabeth, she was the eldest daughter of The Duke and Duchess of
York and was never expected to become Queen. Her life changed in 1936 when her uncle,
King Edward VIII abdicated, and her father became King George VI and the young
Princess became the heir presumptive.
Following the sad death of her father in 1952, Princess Elizabeth became Queen
Elizabeth II aged just 25, and this year is celebrating 70 years on the throne
- a first in British history.
