It’s not about shooting deer

Thoughts on Christmas from Big Mama on Vimeo.

Here are the comments I’d like to make about this video:

1. I love the way her whole voice changes as she talks about what Christmas is all about.

It’s as if she’s auditioning for a part in an after-school special about the true meaning of Christmas.

2. She’s absolutely right. Christmas isn’t about shooting deer.

But considering how much time her daddy spends at the ranch around Christmastime, I’m surprised she doesn’t think it’s a crucial part of Advent.

3. “You get what you get and you don’t throw a fit.”

Maybe it’s just me, but it seems like she’s heard that once or eight hundred times.

4. I believe the word she’s looking for is “celebrating”.

5. I find it hilarious that I just basically made up the names of the three wise men and then resorted to the old “otherwise known as the three wise men” trick. I could have edited that part out but I feel the internet deserves to know that I have a propensity for making up random information in order to appear knowledgeable.

However, please note that I did pull out two biblical names even though I completely mispronounced them and they really have nothing directly to do with the birth of Christ. I am a wealth of misinformation.

Next time I’ll go with Larry, Curly and Moe.

Call now to book me as your next Bible study teacher.

6. She’s right. All the stuff we have is clippity-clap-clap-clap. It’s a family trademark.

7. The sign on the wiseman actually says “Rejoice”, but I don’t even know the names of the three wise men so who am I to judge?
