Christmas time is here

Have you seen “A Charlie Brown Christmas” yet? It came out in the ’60s but is still widely watched till now. It’s an absolute classic and one of the best holiday films to put you in the mood for Christmas. The soundtrack of this Charlie Brown movie is warm and just gives you that fuzzy wuzzy feeling. I listen to it all year long, but of course it’s more special during the holidays. Here’s a clip from the movie featuring the most wonderful holiday song “Christmas Time is Here”:

A Charlie Brown Christmas: Christmas Time is Here

In the film, Charlie Brown tries to search for the spirit of Christmas. He knows he won’t find it in colorful bulbs or fancy gift wrapping. A scrawny Christmas tree teaches him and his friends the season’s lesson: love.

I wish you a Christmas of love. I wish you and your family an extra-special holiday filled with warm surprises and extra loving laughter. I wish you and your family feel the comforting embrace of old tradition and the exciting thrill of creating new ones.

Happy holidays, my dearest readers, my dearest friends. Cheers!

Christmas Time Is Here
Written by Vince Guaraldi, Lee Mendelson

Christmas time is here
Happiness and cheer
Fun for all that children call
Their favorite time of the year

Snowflakes in the air
Carols everywhere
Olden times and ancient rhymes
Of love and dreams to share

Sleigh bells in the air

Beauty everywhere
Yuletide by the fireside
And joyful memories there

Christmas time is here
We’ll be drawing near
Oh, that we could always see
Such spirit through the year
Oh, that we could always see
Such spirit through the year…
