The old tradition was spending time with my Grandma now, now I start a new book While I pet sit 2 dogs for friends. I tried to like you on Facebook but I didn't find the place I was to Like you. I did follow you on Twitter. I like the way the books under you publishers flip to show all the book from them. Also I love the hot pink!

Sorry, I've been baking for 7 hours. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all.
DeleteMy favorite tradition is spending time with my family on Christmas Eve , we open presents that we drew names for (adults) the kids get to open up from aunts and uncles. Christmas Day is just for the immediate family. We open presents, eat and relax the rest of the day.

We don’t really have any traditions except baking a lot. I’m mean hundreds and hundreds of cookies, cheesecakes, and brownies.

I can't believe how many give Christmas jammies. I have always done that with my kids. Thanks for the follows and likes everyone. It is good to see you all and good luck on the big giveaway.
ReplyDeleteOK, let's see. My favorite holiday memory is going to my cousin's home on Christmas Eve after church. Northwomn@gmail.com. I am the 161st like on facebook (Anne Fosse). I followed you on Twitter, @Northwomn. I also tried to leave a comment on your website. I am not sure it went. It said something in itty bitty letters below that I can't read - I think about my email address. So thanks for participating in the hop & doing a giveaway. Happy Holidays. If I don't win the giveaway, can I have the man up on the header? :)
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite memories is going to my memas and aunts for christmas eve. We ate a big dinner, made homemade sugar cookies, opened presents, talked about family stories (the first started us laughing and by the end, we were rolling on the floor). This memory is so special because we dont do it anymore. My family got into a huge fight and we havent celebrated like this in years. What i loved about it most, we were all so close. Now, its all a distant memory. Great hop & awesome giveaway! Thank you!! Happy holidays to you all! Best wishes and many blessings!

Wow, thank you all for playing. And thank you for the likes and the adds. I wish I could give you all a present. I put all the names in a hat, including multiple entries and had the cute little six-year-old next door draw for me. Can't get much more objective than that. And the winner is Z.
