Worlds of Warcraft games! What kind of fun Christmas is that?
Old Fashioned!

We are on the same wavelink today. My group is also headed to Grandmother's.

Good one Sylvia, I can see the kids being concerned, probably never been away from a computer for more than 10 minutes at a time. Lets hope Grandma can teach them a thing or two. You have a wonderful Christmas Sylvia
Ah, yes, a good old fashioned Christmas! Hope you have a great one too.
Sylvia;
Your old fashioned Christmas sounds great to me.
I just love how your header changes!
Merry Christmas my friend!
Chuckling here! Love it! And I bet Grandma can sort out that attitude in no time too! Grandma's have devious ways!
Poor kids! No wonder they're looking so glum... I bet Grandma has tons of silver to polish too, and buckets of popcorn to string for the tree!
(Funny how looking back, some of my favorite Christmas memories were really CHORES in disguise! *gasp*)
I hope you're having a lovely holiday Sylvia!
Wait till they find some fruit in their stocking instead of an i-Phone app.
Have a great Christmas Sylvia.
Ah yes, a standing ovation for old fashion games!
Have a wonderful week.
Oh, so true! I remember the good ol' days when we played Monopoly and Clue, the physical, cardboard and plastic board games, with other real life in-the-flesh people like siblings and cousins.
Have a lovely Christmas with your family, Susan!
Why yes...
I'll have an Old Fashion thank you!!
Happy Holidays Sylvia...G
The best kind of fun! yeah!!! :O)
They can always play Pig in the Middle!
How true!
Aww... funny Sylvia! somehow I think they might be happier not being plugged in afterall.
Alright, now I like an old fashioned Christmas too, but don't take my computer away! LOL!

Geat story. Well, I have to confess, I would hate to have a Christmas away from my computer.

Poor things they will have to have a snowball fight!
YOu can't beat an old fashioned Christmas! :)
I long for an old fashioned Christmas!
When the grandsons come to this house, the Play Station, games, iPods, etc come along! But they still play Uno, Monoply, Rummikub, etc with us. Some things from their not too distant childhood are still fun for them.
Reminds me of the Christmas about 7 years ago when there was a blizzard, and everyone stayed close to home, unconnected by cellphones and computers...you're right--so much fun!
Sounds good to me! :) Wonderful take!
thanks Sylvia for the lovely welcome ~
I loved to hang my Dads thick woollen stocking then see it Christas morn packed with goodies xx how times change xx but I have kept up the sock (not literally :)) for my big (six foot babies)even though they live far away now ~ special wishes Sylvia xx ~ Lib ~
Love it, Sylvia! When I saw the illustration I thought of the song my son learned to play on the piano when he was about 8--Over the river and through the woods, to Grandmother's house we go....
Have a great holiday season. Cheers!
Sounds like my kids!
Great one, Sylvia, and have a great Christmas.

if only there were no cell phones!!
every year my nieces spend all of Christmas Eve texting - Oy!!
An old fashioned Christmas is the best kind.
The very best Christmases are most definitely those that are old fashioned and simple.
What pleasant sentiments.
We have become who we complained about. LOL
Bring on the old-fashioned!
