The Best Way to Spread Christmas Cheer, is Singing Loud for All to Hear!


Here are some of my favorite Christmas songs (and much needed relief from the elementary Christmas music I've been singing since September)! I hope these make you want to dance around and sing at the top of your lungs like they do me (much to Dustin's dismay :) ) In no particular order, here are my TOP 25 (and yes, I had to narrow it down):

...............Merry Christmas!.................

1. Run Rudolph - Chuck Berry (love me some Chuck Berry!)
2. Happy Xmas (War is Over) - John Lennon
