Also some small chocolates and a big box, stocking stuffers werein low supply this year but what i did get I like. I got A megablocks minion but it looks more like regular legos. Also my brothers and I each got a remote control helicopter andBB8 From The new Starwars. Some other starwars things I got were a pack of 4 pins like the Taking Back Sunday 1s ?Courtney picked me up aththeir concert last yea. Also a Starwars Charmbrqacelet. From each of my brotherws I got Ducky Pajamas with feet and a hood, A charmander winter Hat a Squirtle tin Waterbottle, yoda slippers and a rope or hempbraclet that has an ovle that says "keep calm and carrie on my wayword son. MyAlso on cd it says "the Starwars Oridigonal radio bradcasts." that's the trilogy 4 5 6. My aunt gave me A no needle knitting Kit and I cant wait to make a new phone case with it.Also this other kit with string to make braclets and things. Thhe night before We went to Church and to my grandma's house for a light dinner afterwords.I got movie money and an American Express gift Card from each omy uncles. Grandma and abunch of reletives cameover On Christmas so did Courtney, her sister and their parents. We planned on making it a Pajama Christmas because that's what Courtney and Alison wanted but it was too hot for my heavy red Flannels with the Scotty dogs/it ws 73 degrees. I ended up wairing a Pokémon Teashirt and caprees. We had a very good meal though We ate Ham, Turkey, stuffed shells that my mom made, Corn, Honeyglazed Carrots and Corn. Also a salad. For Dessert we got A cheesecake from the Cheese Cake factory like my dad and i have been getting the past few years (this year was pumpkin.) Also my neighbors from nextdoor brought over Cookies and somornies that they make every year. There were a few other things like little candies and cheese over all it was very good. The next day Rebecca came over and I gave her Pajamas with squirls in Santa hats. She gave me a jar with qahandle and straw. it is filled with hurshey kisses and has a chalkboard that says happy newyear. The next day Courtney's mom took us to see the new Starwars It was amazing. I wor my new sweatshirt ght my light saber of course. I hope next time I can go to the midnight showing I've never been to one. Although if they do another 7 pm that'll be awesome too.

Christmas movies!

I’ve been meaning to do a bunch of Christmas related posts like where the 12 days of Christmas comes from. Only the place I originally found that, coolquiz.com apparently shutdown down and some Catholic websites I tried copying and pasting it from x-ed oud after or while copying. I came to the conclusion to write about movies while finding the Movie Prancer on ABC Family and remembering a conver sation I had with my friend Ashley K. She told me she saw it in school one year and “didn’t care for it.” I did some thinking and thought I wouldn’t have really liked it in 4^th or 5^th grade. (Think of yourself all hyped up on sugar and dyeing to get out of school, this happened to me in 12^th grade) But I Digress.

The rest of the world thinks you’re Crazy. In Prancer some Kids mad fun of Jessie and her dad told her to wake up and realize that Reindeer don’t fly. In polar express we don’t get an onscreen example of the world telling the main Character not to believe but he is Plagued with doubt.

Both movies however have charactars who believe with out Question. The girl, who is never named in Polar Express is filled with wonder andis filled with Spi4rit. Not just about Presents, but for the food and Family, the helping of others and the general feeling of the time. This is what seperates her and got her chosen to board and marked as a leader on her ticket.

My point is that this Felling and belief goes far beyond Santa and Flying Reign deer. Aslife goes on there is pressure to believe or not to believe whether or it’s a spiritualbelief, or just in the good of people. Both charactars tell us that there is good in the world and not everything can beexplained by Science and logic.

During the year many people tend to forget this. Multiple movies are here to remind us not just Christmas ones butthey are more likely and easier to spot. If you need a non Christmas example I suggest Bridge to TeraBithia or the Narnia series.

That’s all I have for now on this subject but I Plan and updating this often to work on my writing.
