Christmas Vacation Thread

Good News!

Christmas Vacation comes on TV this Sunday, 12/7, on NBC channels at 8 or 9, sorry I forget.

It's a favorie in my family as well, so very funny and relatable, and I bought it for my sister as one of the many presents. We have the taped version off of TV several years ago, that had to change!

LOVE IT! :xmas:

"Grace? Oh she died thirty years ago."

Our Christmas tree is a fake one this year, but it´s pretty. I started setting it yesterday with my little "helper" (my 3 year old nephew). I checked that all the lights were working before I put them on it and once I finally finished, I turn them on to show him and the top doesn´t lit! I had to search again for the one that was not working, so I plugged and unplugged them until I found the stupid end that wasn´t working and plugged them all together into another socket, and when I was at it, I got an electric shock! My nephew was standing next to me and luckily, we were not touching each other, because I was about to pull him away from the tree! I screamed cause it did hurt! (I had plugged half of it on the socket and touched the other end that was out, by mistake because I was checking on the kid!). I will finish with it later today..... :snore:

Maria...when you plugged it in...(all frustrated) did you sing "JOY TO THE WOOOOORLD"

(and did you have your nephew do the "drumroll?")

I hope nobody I know drives by and sees me standing in the yard in my pajamas...

If they know your dad...they won't think anything of it.

He worked really hard, Grandpa.

So do washing machines.

Bethany:What's that sound?

Bethany:It's a funny squeaky sound.

Lewis: You couldn't hear a dump truck driving through a nitroglycerin plant

Is your house on fire, Clark?

No, Aunt Bethany, those are Christmas lights.

Don't throw me down, Clark.

I'll try not to Aunt Bethany!

Aunt Bethany, we thought since it was your 80th Christmas, you'd like to say grace.

Grace? She died 30 years ago!

They want you to say grace. THE BLESSING!!!!

I have no idea what any of you are talking about, but at our family gatherings someone always says "Who wants to say Grace, glad she's not here!". Oh the fun.

 

[surfsupdon]

"SAVE THE NECK FOR ME CLARK!"

 

[pinkrose]

It's just a little dry, that's all. Oh, here's the heart.
