It's not Christmas until Pacific Northwest Ballet's Nutcracker commercials start airing, which reminds me I have to get my tickets. Sometimes they show the PNB motion picture on TV, but not so much anymore. And I really love the PNB version (with Maurice Sendak designed costumes and sets), so I go pretty much every year. Here's a clip from two of my favorite dances to get you in the spirit:

I put up the angel I painted that I made in like 2nd grade. Is it bad that my fav ornament has my picture on it?

That song was requested twice in a row on the radio this morning!

It's not Christmas until I see the Budweiser Clydesdales prancing (yea they're big, lol) through the snow.

It used to also be the Norelco Santa sledding down the snow but they don't show that anymore.

It's not Christmas until I have seen the ANIMATED Grinch movie on TV (not the Jim Carrey movie).

I acquired a new cheesy decoration yesterday.. a 3 pc bathroom set. Toilet seat cover is Santa's head, with hat, beard, etc. His body is the rug for the floor around the commode. There is also a snowman tissue box cover. I never had my bathroom decorated before. The kids are going to crack up.

I am proud to say that I've never seen the Jim Carrey movie.

I agree, you've missed nothing, MC.

Now "Scrooged", THAT'S a Christmas movie I can watch over and over. In fact, I have to watch it at least once a season. Usually while decorating or wrapping.
