Narrator 3: It could be that his shoes were too tight or that his head was not screwed on just right. Narrator 4: But the most likely reason the Grinch hated the season may have been that his heart was two sizes too small.

Winter Break and Happy Instagram:@garfieldhsela Holidays! Twitter: @GarfieldHSELA -1- Break Time By: Cherly Valdez During the thanksgiving break, I took advantage of leisure time to spend with my youngest sibling, aged six. With Christmas approaching, we decided to watch Jim Carrey’s How the Grinch Stole Christmas. The 2000 film is an adaptation of Dr. Seuss’ children’s book. As Christmas neared, the Grinch recalled a time when he was made fun of for making a homemade gift for a girl in his class. Petrified by the memory, the Grinch attempted to ruin Christmas for others as they did to him. We watched as the film’s main protagonist developed a warmer and loving nature. His transformation involved his ability to find happiness despite having a heart “three sizes too small.” This version of the Grinch taught me lessons beyond Christmas and holidays, it taught me the importance of letting grudges go, it taught me that spending time with myself is necessary, it taught me to appreciate the loving people around me. But when the trailer for Illumination’s The Grinch was released, I was disappointed by its different approach to the original.

These two events do so much to support our small businesses downtown as well as build community. I am thankful that we could plan several new safe and healthy Lost Pines Christmas events," said Main Street Manager Rebecca Gleason. This year, the City is hosting the first 'Making Bastrop Bright,' a lighted holiday decorating contest. Registrants decorate their homes or businesses, with winners chosen by the public. Details about the rules, categories, and more are available at www.cityofbastrop.org/MakingBastropBright.
