New Version of Deck the Halls

Inspect yourself with growls of jolly
fa la la la la la la la la 
Christmas joy to you, no folly!
fa la la la la la la la la 

Gone is now our gay sombrero
fa la la la la la la la la 
Christmas trees line our hallway narrow
fa la la la la la la la la 

Let us dance but have no real fuss
fa la la la la la la la la 
Enjoying differences we discuss
fa la la la la la la la la 

Christmas day for kin and masses 
fa la la la la la la la la 
We will share things including glasses
fa la la la la la la la la 

See you at grandma’s, when we gather
fa la la la la la la la la 
No matter how bad or mean the weather
fa la la la la la la la la 

We shall make the best of things for sure
fa la la la la la la la la 
To celebrate our Christ so pure 
fa la la la la la la la la

Hmm...I think I might have done this one, too. How about a race to the top?

Hahaha I was glad to think "contests" today for it gave me six new ideas! It's not the winning that's important; it's the IDEAS for me.
