On the tenth day of Christmas . . .
On the tenth day of Christmas my true love sent to me . . .
Ten squirrels leaping,
.
Nine grandkids dancing,
.
Eight maids a-cleaning,
.
Seven EELS a-peeking,
..
Six Guineas Preening,
.
Five canning rings!
.
Four Calling Birds,
.
Three Fat Sheep,
.
Two Spitting Llamas,
.
… And a Parrot on a Fairrryyyyy!.
New Style, cost of 10 squirrels leaping: $0.00
Old (Classic) Style, cost of 10 Lords a-leaping: $98.00
.Squirrels. We have lots of them. They are leaping all over the yard. Off the fences. Through the trees. On the roof.
.
Squirrels are abundant. No cost there.
However, the ten lords a-leaping is another matter. Where would you see lords a-leaping…. I thought about it a while. Where to see lords a-leaping??
.
.
Aha! Riverdance!
.
.
.
Well, there are TEN lords a-leaping. (Hey, besides a lot of tapping, they did some leaping there at the end!)
.
So that takes care of the 10 Lords a-leaping!

Total to date:
New Style – $6,645.89
Classic Style – $12,723.74
Classic Style is still almost twice what it is for the Country Style, or new way of doing “The Twelve Days of Christmas”.
