Thanks to all who contributed decorations and refreshments this year, as well as all those who walked up the hill in the ice and snow to welcome in the Christmas season in Carmine Superiore.
The story so far...
This Christmas I would like...

Love it! I could spend some hiding-from-the-rain-time browsing Dave's cartoons.
Luise, this is hylarious. You must be busy in the summer with holiday seekers up in your village, no?
Thats cute, I've never seen this guys cartoons before.
Oh, this is funny - and true! The only part that is missing is the: people pretending to understand the sermon but really writing their shopping lists!
Louise, it is a shame this is so funny because 1) Its true and 2) I'm a preacher! I've got to figure out if there is some way to put this on powerpoint and show the church. I know they'll appreciate it. Thanks for posting this. wb
I like ladyfi's addition to the 3 circles - would need quite a big space. Putting it on powerpoint would be great Warren! One church I attended had pre-written sermon notes in the bulletin and there were blanks to fill in! And that wasn't for the children! That was too funny!
