'One of my favorite Christmas Albums of all time (and yes, I'm still listening to Christmas music. The Christmas season isn't over until the Epiphany on January 6.) is Amy Grant's "A Christmas Album". She sings some traditional Christmas songs like "O Come All Ye Faithful" and "O Little Town of Bethlehem", but one of her more unknown tracks is called "Tennessee Christmas". And it's amazing.
Today, Pete and I, along with his parents traveled over to Spooner, Wisconsin to visit his brother Don and family and celebrate the holiday with them. We at some tacos, shared some gifts, watched some football, and just enjoyed each other's company; in mind, everything a Christmas should be (despite it being two days late and under some unusual circumstances.)
Right now you're probably wondering what that has to do with a Tennessee Christmas, and to the naked eye, nothing. But the climbing pine trees covered in snow lining the streets as we pull into the tiny town spark my imagination and what a Christmas in Tennessee would be like. Truthfully, with no family in the area, I have absolutely no desire to spend a Christmas in Tennessee. But I will certainly take Amy Grant singing and trips to Wisconsin in the alternative.
