The Costa Family Christmas 2000 Celebration Intro Page

Merry Christmas... From Our Home To Yours

Welcome to the Costa Family Christmas Celebration 2000!

If you're a nostalgic person such as I am, specially when it's the Holidays Season, you will just love to listen to the first recording of "White Christmas" performed by Bing Crosby. It's in a Real Audio format and the size is 306 kb. But I tell you, it's worth the downloading time. This is the trade mark of Xmas! The song is performed entirely! Just wonderful!! Click on the link below to listen to this beautiful music. While the music is downloading you will be listening to a MIDI version of if sequenced performed by my special friend Ricardo Leão.

Merry Christmas

Each day I will be grateful
For all new friends I meet
On Christmas and in every day
They make my life complete

For family who reside inside
Their heart my ornament
Christmas is the time to show
Their love will be constant

Christmas Ornament

For strangers all across the land
Who reach to touch my heart
I want to tell them most of all
This love will never part

If I have touched you with a word
Brought to you a tear
Made you think of all your life
With treasured memories here

Christmas Ornament

I thank you for my spirit
That soars across the sky
Grateful for that twinkle
That you placed within my eye

Thank you for the heart of gold
That we will always share
Hope your Christmas always is
The beauty we will wear

Christmas Ornament

Sending you on angel's wings
Sweet music for your soul
Christmas sent with all my love
With notes that we all scroll

So on this special Christmas night
When Jesus Christ was born
May Holly fill your heart with peace
May angel wings adorn

Christmas Ornament

The ornaments placed on your tree
Be made of gold and lace
Reminding us that we are stitched
With love that we can trace

The beauty of this Christmas night
With treasures we have graced
Forever live within our souls
Sweet Baby's Heart embraced.

Hi there!

How nice that you stopped by! Grab a chair and relax while I tell you how the Costa Family celebrates this special season. Well, to start off, I'll explain how we used to celebrate our Christmas Holidays until last year. Afterwards, I'll tell you how we will be celebrating it starting this year.

Christmas is my favorite season of the year! Although I live in Brazil, which is very well known for the high temperatures at this time of the year (December 22nd is the official date for the beginning of Summer), I love to celebrate just as if we had snow!

Sorry, your browser doesn't support Java(tm).

You must be wondering what is Christmas without snow? Well, in the beginning, I have to admit that is was strange, no, wait I better rephrase that: it was weird! *giggles* But as years went by, I got accustomed to the temperature and worked around that issue.
