I can't find the thread with the idea for spreading Christmas cheer by anonamously decorating your neighbor's mailboxes with Candy Canes. Becca & I have bought some things to "Cane" some folks this week-end, but I NEED the poem !
PLEASE somebody help me !

You can stick them in your...

Cap, this is a short version of what I received.
May I have the secret decorder ring ?
and Jaybbird, we may use your version for ONE special person, but otherwise ..... I don't think we need to give Mrs. Chambers a heart attack !

The email text was fine Cap, just the attachment was freaky.
Thanks Juliegirl - how did you *DO* that ? I thought "search" was still disabled ?
I heard a little Christmas
In the laughter of a child
I saw a little Christmas
In a snowman's jolly smile
I felt a little Christmas
When I gave a gift away...
Just little things...
And yet they filled my heart
With joy today.
You have just been "HIT" by
The Christmas Spirit!!!
"For unto us a child is born, to us a Son is given and the government will be on his shoulders, and he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace." Isaiah 9:6
Help spread the Christmas Spirit by "hitting" two more of your neighbors! Here's what you need to do to keep the spirit moving.
1. Put together two bags of candy, etc. or whatever you would like to leave at two neighbors' doorsteps.
2. Purchase two plastic candy canes (like the one you see on your mailbox) and tie onto the neighbor's mailboxes that you have hit. Please don't "rehit" a house!
3. Approximately $10.00 will cover two homes.
Have fun! This is a fun and unique way to spread the joy in our neighborhood. The key to this is it's a secret! So, do what you can not to be caught in the act! That makes it all the more fun. If you are the last family to receive a hit this season, we hope you will start up the tradition next season!
Hope the holidays bring you
All the smiles your heart can hold.
Merry Christmas and
Happy New Year!!
From your secret Ridgewood neighbor.

I laughed so hard I was crying when I started reading this thread,
Ya'll are too funny.Oh & the other thread from last year was pretty cute too.
I haven't gotten along very well with my neighbors since we've been here,no fighting,just no interaction.I bet this will be a great way to open some doors to a friendlier neighborhood here...thanks for the idea & the giggles!!

LOL I knew it was my post and that it had been bumped halfway recently... Set the box down at the bottom to the past 20 days and sorted by thread starter. ;)
