If you visited last week, you probably saw that my Monday morning pick-me-up has been taken over for the month of December with some of my favorite Christmas tunes. If you missed it, you can check out part one (It Snowed) and part two (Christmas with the Beatles).

Living in Colorado, this week’s song is one we hear on the radio all the time, as well as a personal favorite at our house. All the stations around here love to play it, and it’s no wonder:

The closest thing to heaven on this planet anywhere
Is a quiet Christmas morning in the Colorado snow.

This beautiful tune comes to us from Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, and the version I found this morning is a live one. Enjoy.
