Christmas

Once the holidays roll around, you can expect to see an influx of updates from loved ones in your mailbox. This year, instead of taking the traditional approach (and kill a bunch of trees in the process), one family decided to take advantage of a little thing called the Internet and shoot a video recap of its 2013.

Want a good laugh? Check out this high school chorus group "The Silent Monks.' They perform 'Hallelujah.' Now, how exactly do silent monks sing? Watch our Holiday Song of the Day to find out.

It may seem that airlines nickel-and-dime us to pieces, but one carrier has pretty much gone way above and beyond to prove it's got a heart the size of the North Pole.

We love a good flash mob, but this is a Christmas Flash Mob by the U.S. AIr Force Band as they perform this impromptu performance of holiday cheer at the National Air and Space Museum. This is so cool!  

The holiday season means a huge array of Christmas commercials, some you'll like, some you'll hate. But by all means, keep your comments to yourself.

The 18th annual Christmas at the Belle is this Thursday, Nov. 21, from 5:15– 6 p.m. at the Belle Mehus City Auditorium.

The annual Victorian Tea held by four Mandan High School choirs will be Sunday, Nov. 24 at the Seven Seas.

Even the hardest rock and rollers can get into the Christmas spirit, as witnessed by this dangerous cover of 'Run Run Rudolph' from the legendary Lemmy Kilmister of Motorhead, with help from Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top and drummer Dave Grohl of Nirvana and Foo Fighters fame.

Aww man! We've been sucked in again. It's another edition of animals in costumes, but we swear it's way worth your time. Why? Well, because there are few things more adorable than dressing up our dogs and cats in holiday garb and showing them off on the Web. We're positive they love it! (Maybe.)

The holidays are meant for family and being with loved ones. When this time of year rolls around I often remember the families of those that will be without those close to them because of their commitment to serve our country.
