Jingle Bells

I have been hearing a lot of Christmas carols but my favorite one is Jingle Bells. 

Did you know Jingle Bells was written to be a American Thanks Giving song. It was created by James Lord Pierpont. The title used to be One Horse Open Sleigh. It is believed that the song was written at Medford, Massachusetts which is just over  5 miles from where I stay!

I know how to play Jingle Bells on the Piano and Violin!
