D'arcy and Julian's Fav Christmas Carols

1. Little Drummer Boy (Julian's favorite. He'll break out in ba rum ba ba bums at random points in time)
2. Charlie Brown Christmas Music (Stephen was so proud when a Vince Guaraldi song comes on in the toy store and Julian looks at Stephen and says "Charlie Brown Music!"
3. Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer (What kids don't like this song? We were listening to 101.9 which plays Christmas music non stop in S.A. and D'arcy says, "I want them to play Rudolph next!" I was in the midst of explaining that the radio isn't like a CD when all of sudden Rudolph starts playing!)
4. The Friendly Beasts (A great story of animals giving unique gifts to Jesus. It's great to sing during our Advent story times. D'arcy always asks for this when we listen to Sufjan Stevens.)
5. Santa Claus is Coming to Town (I didn't realize they knew this one until they both broke out in song after a bath. Julian would finish each line for D'arcy.)
6. Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing (Ok, not a traditional Christmas song, but it is on one of the Sufjan Stevens Christmas CDs and D'arcy has worked very hard to learn the lyrics.)
7. Do you hear what I hear? (D'arcy asks me to turn it up when this one comes on.)
8. Once in Royal David City (Ok, this is mommy's favorite of the year, and is trying push it on the kids.)
9. Frosty the Snowman (Another kid favorite)
