A lot of christmas presents

I think this year there were more presents under (and around) the tree than ever before. I know having a lot of presents can sometimes detract from the real meaning of Christmas, but hopefully my family and I did a decent job of it. I must say I am blessed to have received so much, eaten so much good food, and been able to spend so much quality time with family and friends.

The 88.5 WJIE Christmas Dream Tree is back! While shopping please consider buying an extra gift. You can drop off gifts at the 88.5 WJIE studio, 5400 Minor Lane, weekdays between 9:00AM-4:00PM. The Bob Evans Restaurant on Standiford Drive in Hillview is also a drop off location. We’re asking for wrapped gifts of clothing for men & women, clothing or toys for boys & girls. Please mark accordingly.Gifts will be distributed to folks in our community that could use a little extra help. Thanks!

The festive season always comes with at least a tiny bit of nostalgia. On Christmas, most of us would go visit our relatives, give gifts, sit around the table, and unavoidably reminisce about the good old days of childhood.
