Christmas Music Favorites
December 3, 2011
I was gathering together music for our upcoming holiday party, making selections and creating a playlist and came across some of my favorite renditions of Christmas tunes. We’re decorating to these while we eat our fair share of peppermint candy canes. Some are new, many are classic, I hope you find a new one to enjoy!
