Hunting the Holiday Spirit

Only 22 more days until Christmas?!?  I can't believe it!

It never really feels like Christmastime in South Florida even with everyone's holiday decorations on display.  It is weird to see icicle lights on houses when we do not get any snow!

I decided to hunt for some natural Holiday spirit around my neighborhood and you know what?!?  I found lots of greens and reds and even a little white.

What do you think?  Is it beginning to look a little bit like Christmas here?

Happy BlogPaws Wordless Wednesday!

  4. Mom is the opposite - she would feel quite at home with Christmas being hot seeing how Christmas in Australia is right in the middle of summer and she would be much happier seeing a green christmas than the yucky brown one we have at the moment

  7. Aw, i'm glad you had some success hunting for some holiday spirit!
    We are just finally getting our snow back, it got so warm that it all melted away, and I am not a fan of having a green Christmas. xx

  9. I know what you mean about it not really feeling 'Christmasy" - it doesn't here in California either...that's why Jack is wishing for the snow.

  15. I guess you have to take the spirit where you find it! Even up here where it is cold, you have to look for it sometimes.

  16. It does seem weird to have warm weather for Christmas but the Down Under furiends have warm weather so maybe you are having an Australian Christmas?

  23. Mom grew up with no snow at Christmas (California) but she has been in Idaho for lots of years. She likes the snow but hates to drive in it

  27. Very nice Christmas colors, Oz, I think you succeeded on your mission. You can have some of our snow if you really feel you need some though. :)

  28. Good job, Oz! We think the spirit of Christmas is in our hearts. You've got such a good heart that we're sure it's beginning to look a lot like Christmas there. :)

  29. We spent Christmas in Florida three years ago, it just isn't the same seeing all the decorations on green grass and palm trees, so Mom said no more of that and now we go in November so we are home at Christmas. You all do have great decorations, but we like the snow.

  30. Your such a great holiday hunter, you did great!

  31. Aw! Cute photos!

    Here in Texas, the fall leaves are just starting to drop, so it doesn't feel quite like Christmas time yet here either...

  32. Momma prefers her Christmases warm - she actually cried when we had a white Christmas a couple years ago cuz she hates snow.

  33. Way to go Oz! We don't get much snow either, and the leaves are just now falling. We don't mind...Mom sleeps with 3 blankets when the temps get down to 50! Enjoy your beautiful weather!

  34. We have the same problem here in South Africa, Christmas time is summer time for us so it doesn't make much sense dreaming about a white Christmas or dashing through the snow. We do however like what you have found there.

  36. I would definitely have a hard time getting into the holiday spirit in South Florida!

  37. Not exactly like Christmas...lol. Growing up my parents had a small place in Florida and we used to go for Christmas break. They had a fake silk tree in the house and I used to decorate it with lights and some ornaments. :)
