MMTPT477~September 12, 2017~On Dasher, On Dancer...Is That a Tractor?
Welcome to Teapot Tuesday the Sisterhood of the Traveling Teaparty and Challenge #477
On Dasher, On Dancer....Is That a Tractor?
Note: Anyone is welcome to play! You automatically become a Teapotter the first time you play in our challenge. Also, you do not have to write a story. You just have to be inspired by the teapot or by the story about this week's location! Have fun! If this is your first Teapot Tuesday Challenge, please mention that in your commentary so we can be sure to greet you properly, in pure Teapot Tuesday fashion! Your participation in Destination Station is 100% voluntary and not at all required. Just have fun!
The Rest of the Story:
1: Well, yes it just might be a tractor. This here is farm country and them fancy sleds just get stuck in the mud. Ahem.....back to the story:
2: What on earth is that batty ol' woman up to now? (and no they aren't talking about me this time) Everyone in town is talking about Miss MandaLou more than usual this week. She has always been a bit odd but seriously!! Putting up her Christmas decorations and it is still September. Did she forget about Halloween???? If she did, then we better call the Dr. because something is seriously wrong with MandaLou, cuz there is no one likes Halloween decorating more than she does.
3: But Miss MandaLou just keeps on amidst their questions and twittering. Putting up her Christmas tree, lights on the house and pulling the old tractor around to the front to put lights on it too. She knows that they think she is batty so she doesn't really care. She has fun and she's gonna have even more fun when she throws a HUGE surprise party this week end.
4: After she has everything in place, she delivers invitations to all the little people in town inviting them to a special Christmas party and has lots of little gifts and treats lined up. She is having so much fun and all the little ones are getting excited. See they all know what the big people don't: you can celebrate any ol' time you want to and sometimes it's more fun that way.
Challenge Translation:
Bring some Christmas Cheer, some trees, decorations, presents, lights; especially lights. We need to get the Christmas spirit flowing

Here is my card for little Christian. I tried to dd a couple different things to feel and sparkles and added some Lego as he loves that too. Christmas for Christian
