December 13, 2011 It seems there's one every year, the one toy that every child clamors for. The one that's sold out on Black Friday by 6AM and leaves parents scrounging. In the past its been Cabbage Patch dolls and Tickle Me Elmo. So what's the must have toy of the 2011 holiday season? There isn't one.

December 12, 2011 Its official, I’ve chopped down two Christmas trees this year. One for my family on black Friday, and the other just yesterday when I helped my girlfriend pick out her Christmas tree. I love real trees over plastic, and I love the smell of pine. We usually decorate it with colored lights, bulbs, and our decorations from when we grew up. But some people out there may judge you on how your tree looks.
Most of us wouldn’t be caught dead in a garish Christmas sweater. But one woman in Vermont specializes in making ugly Christmas pullovers. As far as she’s concerned, the uglier the better.
It’s perfectly normal to mark the holidays with a decoration or two. But the Rieken family in Texas takes their celebration of the season to the extreme by cramming over 200 trees into their home. Clark Griswold of ‘National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation’ fame would be proud!

The holiday season is synonymous with timeless, classic films like 'It’s A Wonderful Life,' 'Miracle on 34th Street' and 'Holiday Inn.' Even more recent favorites like “A Christmas Story,' 'Love, Actually' and 'Elf' instantly put us in the mood to cozy up to the fire and sip a cup of Yuletide cheer.
But you know what really gets our chestnuts roasting? The outrageous drama, soap-operatic plot twists and ridiculous-sounding titles brought to us courtesy of the made-for-TV elves at Hallmark Channel, Lifetime and ABC Family.
Listen for Santa Claus to make is annual visit to the Lite 98.7 studios all this week. Santa will be taking your children's Christmas wish lists over the phone between 7 and 8PM with week.

The bright lights, loud music and long lines can often keep autistic kids from engaging in a holiday ritual many children enjoy: an annual visit with Santa.
So one mall opened early last Sunday morning for some low-key “sensitive Santa” time.
December 9, 2011 It's the holiday party season, which can be a lot of fun, but it can also get you into a lot of trouble. If you’re going to drink a lot it's a good idea to check yourself before things get out of hand and you do something stupid.
December 9, 2011 You may have been doing this for years if you're a thrifty Mom but just because things are tight this Christmas Season, you don't have to skimp out on the gifts. Especially when this timeless toy is so easy to make yourself!
