"Happy Holiday's" and "Merry Xmas" what the heck! without the Christ part ya got nuthin! there is no reason to celebrate! i was watching the 5 oclock news on ABC and the anchor said Merry Christmas! my heart was filled with joy! so everyone Merry Christmas. i hope your day is filled with joyful memories!<br /> <br /> my day started off a little on the tense side, but soon the rest of the day went extremely smooth. with Christmas Eve on a sunday this year, the church that my parents attend only had morning services and an 8 and 10 oclock. weeeeelllll we usually go to the 5 or 6, come home, eat dinner, then on to the greed fest. this year we went to the 1030 service... then we went to see the <a href="http://www.mallofamerica.com/adults_event_detail_objectname_gingerbread_house.aspx">"world's largest gingerbread house"</a><br /> (it really wasn't that great).<br /> <img width="225" height="300" src="http://clearblogs.com/uploads/m/melatzke/13819.jpg" style="display: block;" alt="" /><br /> <img width="300" height="400" src="http://clearblogs.com/uploads/m/melatzke/13820.jpg" style="display: block;" alt="" /><br /> <br /> family fun though i guess<img alt="" src="/include/fckeditor/editor/images/smiley/msn/wink_smile.gif" /><br /> <br /> then we came home to just chill for a while... remarkably enough the boys went to clean their toy room without anyone harassing them to do it... i asked them where the burst of energy came from and they said that they needed to make room for their new toys... too funny how their little brains work! my mom and i worked on making some scarfs and hats.. i ended up getting frustrated after i had worked on a hat for almost 4 hours (multitasking of course) and screwed it up... i threw it at the floor and walked away... oops, at least i didn't do it in front of the bros.<img alt="" src="/include/fckeditor/editor/images/smiley/msn/angel_smile.gif" />lol<img alt="" src="/include/fckeditor/editor/images/smiley/msn/angry_smile.gif" /> i'll probably give er another try tomorrow. we ate dinner and then we actually had a very flesh controlling night:) normally it takes 20 mins tops to open presents, tonight it took an hour and a half! wow! <br> <a href='http://clearblogs.com/post_comment.php?w=melizabeth&e_id=23509'>Leave a Comment</a> <br><br> <blockquote> <a name='c10231'></a> <h2><i>Untitled Comment</i></h2> <div class='timedate'> <b>02:50 PM, 12.25.2006</b> ..

Posted by Anonymous </div> Hi Molly...just wanted to play a little advocate for the generation "X"mas-ers.The word for Christ in Greek is Xristos. During the 16th century, Europeans began using the first initial of Christ's name, "X" in place of the word Christ in Christmas as a shorthand form of the word. Although the early Christians understood that X stood for Christ's name, later Christians who did not understand the Greek language mistook "Xmas" as a sign of disrespect... although today I'm quite sure that many people today who substitute X for Christ may not understand this... :) <br><br> <a name='c10387'></a> <h2><i>Untitled Comment</i></h2> <div class='timedate'> <b>10:35 PM, 12.29.2006</b> .. Posted by Anonymous </div> never knew, i guess i learn something new everyday! i guess i wasn't really offended, i just thought why shorten Christmas to Xmas... when it's just as easy to write the full name. ok. im done now:) thanks much... <br><br> </blockquote> { <a class='laterlink' href='http://clearblogs.com/melizabeth/23726/'>Last Page</a> } { Page 5 of 77 } { <a class='earlierlink' href='http://clearblogs.com/melizabeth/21488/'>Next Page</a> }  </td> <td class='rightside' width='150' valign='top'>  <h2><h2> <h2><div style="background-color: black; padding: 1px; height:88px; width:200px;"><embed src="http://static.filmloop.com/looplets/flash/v2/looplet.swf" quality="high" scale="noscale" flashvars="base=looplets.filmloop.com&weblinkid=N4sb2ewAJ6CAP2tIYdQUEbfw3WRNzu7o&flnb=1&incr=1" name="looplet" align="middle" bgcolor="#333333" width="278" height="70" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></embed><div style="background-color: black; width:278px; height:18px;"><div style="float: left;"><a href="http://looplets.filmloop.com/link?id=N4sb2ewAJ6CAP2tIYdQUEbfw3WRNzu7o" target="_blank"><img src="http://looplets.filmloop.com/images/see_it_big.gif" border=0 /></a><img src="http://looplets.filmloop.com/images/divider.gif" border=0 /><a href="http://filmloop.adbureau.net/adclick/CID=0000085c0000000000000000" target="_blank"><img src="http://looplets.filmloop.com/images/create_your_own.gif" border=0 /></a></div><div style="float:right;"><a href="http://filmloop.adbureau.net/adclick/CID=0000073c0000000000000000" target="_blank"><img src="http://looplets.filmloop.com/images/flash_logo.gif" border=0 /></a></div></div></div><h2> <h2><h2> <h2><a href="http://easyhitcounters.com/stats.php?site=melatzke" target="_top"><img border="0" alt="Free Counter" src="http://beta.easyhitcounters.com/counter/index.php?u=melatzke&s=amini" ALIGN="middle" HSPACE="4" VSPACE="2"></a> <br><a href="http:///" target="_top"><font color="#666666"></font></a><h2> <a class='menu' href='http://clearblogs.com/melizabeth/'>Home</a><br> <a class='menu' href='http://clearblogs.com/profiles/melatzke/'>My Profile</a><br> <a class='menu' href='http://clearblogs.com/melizabeth/archive/'>Archives</a><br> <a class='menu' href='http://clearblogs.com/melizabeth/friends/'>Friends</a><br> <a class='menu' href='http://clearblogs.com/albums/melatzke/'>My Photo Album</a><br> <h2><h2> <br><p align=center><font size=1><span style=background:white><a href=http://www.geocities.com/somekindofzombie77777/myhomepage/raindex.html></a></span><embed align="top" src="http://www.geocities.com/warriorofchrist777/bigdaddyweave_beyoureverything.ram" width="150" height="50" type="audio/x-pn-realaudio-plugin" loop="</htpdiv" autostart="true" controls="all" border="0"> <br><br><h2>Links to check out<h2> <a href='http://www.fotb.com/'>International House of Prayer</a><br><a href='http://www.rbc.org/utmost/index.php'>My Utmost for His Hightest</a><br><a href='http://spiritformed.com/'>Maranatha Christian Church</a><br><a href='http://www.dictionary.reference.com/'>Dictionary</a><br><a href='http://www.nowistheday.blogspot.com/'>Zappos</a><br><a href='http://sarahdecker.blogspot.com/'>Sarah Decker</a><br><a href='http://www.juliannemoch.blogspot.com/'>Julianne</a><br><a href='http://beholdingbeauty.blogspot.com/'>Twaci</a><br><a href='http://www.williamcaesar.blogspot.com/'>Bill</a><br><a href='http://www.basementbum.blogspot.com/'>Pete</a><br><a href='http://seedsofchange777.blogspot.com/'>Geno</a><br><a href='http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/consumebyfire'>Wiz Family</a><br><a href='http://petersonposse.blogspot.com/'>Peterson Posse</a><br><a href='http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/freedom'>Freedom Grace</a><br><a href='http://www.nowistheday.blogspot.com/'>Now is the Day</a><br><a href='http://clearblogs.com/cmburu/'>Christine</a><br><a href='http://thecharleblog.blogspot.com/'>JP-n-Audra</a><br><a href='http://sprucegoose.blogspot.com/'>Sprucegoose</a><br> <br><h2><><</h2> <br> <h2>Recent Entries</h2> <a href='http://clearblogs.com/melizabeth/25317/'><i>Untitled</i></a><br><a href='http://clearblogs.com/melizabeth/24490/Yay%21%21%21%21%21%21%21%21%21%21%21%21%21++FINALLY+i+am+here%21.html'>Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!
