'Twas the Site by Three Sisters - 2018

So the saying goes, it's the most wonderful time of the year. AND that means, it's also the time of the year that The Harris Sisters present to you our 2018 year in review in the form of a 'Twas the Night Before Christmas parody.

For those of you new to our blog, this is a Harris Family tradition that dates waaaayyy back (back before computers, and blogs, and social media, and such). Yes, these were originally created with good old fashioned pencil and paper while sitting at the kitchen bar on Christmas Eve night.

So, to keep this grand old tradition alive, we still bring these to you on Christmas Eve (albeit in a slightly more newfangled way).

We had lots of fun this year! We're so glad we got to "meet" some of our new friends and keep up with our old ones. We hope that you had fun reading along with us!



'Twas the Site by Three Sisters - 2018


Twas the site by three sisters, Two Zero One Eight
The fun we've had this year has been really first-rate;
In Spring we showed you some ways to garden so cheap,
In hopes they're ideas that you'll want to keep;

And then in May, we soon followed suit
with tips for planning a family photo shoot.
With an old truck and costumes, it'll come together in a flash,
Gather the kids and the grandkids, and you'll make a big splash!

Gather up your driver, ready for a cameo,
You'll recognize our driver - it's our Daddy-o!
More rapid than eagles his kiddos they came,
And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name;

"Now, DEANNA! now, MISTY! now, DONNA and JAXON!
On, CHARLOTTE! on EMMA! on, LEXI and AIDYN!
To the top of the truck! Photograph us all!
Now flash away! flash away! flash away all!"

And then in June we could not refrain
from telling you all about our ride on a train
From antiques to hiking to the old Warrior Motel, 
and a See Rock City Barn - so many stories to tell!

In September, Misty headed to a prom (second chance)
So you voted just what should she wear to this dance.
And once every tally and ballot was cast,
She revealed her 1980s look at last!

October - our costumes, Winifred, Sarah, and Mary!
25 years for the Sandersons, but these witches aren't scary.
And don't forget to stop in for a visit,
To our Halloween Home Tour  -  a video with it;

And then in November, we thought it was high time,
To give our blog a brand new design,
With a new look and feel, we'll bring you content next year,
We're already planning and preparing, my dears!

As January 1 nears - oh my, how time flies!
We wanted to make sure we acknowledge you guys,
To all who have followed, shared, commented, and liked,
"HARRIS CHRISTMAS TO ALL, AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT!"

Merry Christmas from Deanna, Donna, and Misty! (and Daddy - we're pictured here in 1979)
