Don't leave carrots for Rudolph!

John Welford @indexer (4852) • Leicester, England 19 Dec 18

Apparently, vast sums of money are spent every year on treats for Father Christmas and his entourage, including the reindeer. Naturally, the glass of sherry is always empty when the children come downstairs on Christmas morning,...

So, today I started decorating our tree. To me, there's something missing. I might add some tinsel and will need to add candy canes, but I don't know if that will help or not? What do you put on your Christmas tree? We have...

Reindeer

Steve Helmer @srhelmer (7047) • Beaver Dam, Wisconsin 14 Nov 16

We saw these reindeer while up in Ripon (again, they were celebrating Christmas more than a month early). They were fenced in so kids couldn't pet them. But, they were still pretty cool to see.
