11 Comments on A Merry Little Christmas (Traditions from a Minnesota gal).... Got your socks?
Lindsay - Nice post and nice way to tie it into your business. Yes, I too love the library reservation system. However, they didn't have tie decorate your socks craft when my kids were little. Great idea!
Carla - They've done stockings in Elk River since I was little. :) Must be area specific!
Carla, I was going to say the same thing. Great way to promote your business. What a great tradition. We don't decorate our own but everyone in my family has used the same ones for years.
Michael. We used the same stockings all growing up but I started afresh with my family. The ones they make at the library decorate the library until Christmas. :)
Lindsey, "socky socks", how cute! I admit I haven't given my socks a thought yet but then there's still time! Happy holidays!
Lindsey, that's a neat tradition - I really like that. I'm sure there's a few people here in the rain who will love this idea. Me, I just have my puppies' stockings up, LOL.
Silvia - Just makes you want a pair of socky socks, doesn't it?
Juli - I'm sure that your puppies prefer the stockings hung rather than on their feet.
Ok, Lindsey, this is getting really, really freaky now! We call them socky-socks! (At least, the little kids do.)
We didn't decorate our own stockings but I did let each child pick out their own stockings years ago. We used to have the same stockings for years and years when I was a kid but we, too, started fresh when we started our own family.
I think the thing I love most about our house is that we have a fireplace with a mantle. You just can't hang stockings appropriately any other way!

Renae! What a great laugh or two!!! I love things like socky-socks. It's the verbage that makes it so much fun! And, stockings just aren't the same if they aren't hanging under a fireplace. :)
Lindsey- Another great tradition.
We have reservations at our library too. Two of them even have drive thru's too...man do I love that.
Oooh. A driver thru at the library? that's a fascinating idea Scott!
