Lost items at Christmas in the Courthouse Pam Kermeen writes: I enjoyed visiting all the booths in the Courthouse this morning, but I did not have cash with me so I wrote checks. In doing so I believe that I left one of my purchases. It was a $10.00 primitive "We are blessed" wooden plaque with a black checkered ribbon on it. It is about 12" square. I also had two yellow coloring books from the Sugarfoot booth for my grandkids. I am sure that I set it down to write a check. I sure hope someone found it and will call me. Thanks!

A Christmas Memory: Role reversal brings best Christmas ever Those Christmas Eve family drives to see the lights of town always meant a special visitor would have worked his magic before the family returned. Until that age came when she, the youngest of her sibs, lost faith in the Santa Claus. Fast forward 40 years, when a role reversal brought back memories of those early years and the best Christmas ever for her dad, and memories the author will forever treasure. Click on headline for whole story By Donna Rieder My parents started a family Christmas tradition when my oldest sister was little, and continued it until I, the youngest of three kids, lost faith in the "Santa Claus." Every Christmas Eve after dinner, we'd all pile into the car and drive around looking at the Christmas lights and decorations in the neighborhood. Dad always arranged for a neighbor to come over when we left, and put all our presents and toys under the tree, so that when we got home, Santa would have visited. We kids always ate dinner quickly and never fussed about getting the dishes done, because we knew as soon as we got home from our ride, we'd have a surprise awaiting us!
