What a loveerly giveaway!
I love Christmas too! I love the gift choosing (finding something that fits the person), the food making (the tantalising smells...), the fact that we are celebrating an amazing gift; Jesus coming into the world to save sinners, the joys snow brings (or the fun we have digging ourselves out of it...) and just the excitement that the word Christmas makes you feel! =)
I love Christmas as well.... especially when my absolute favorite blog hosts a giveaway! :)
My favorite Christmas song is .... "What child is this?"
Steph
My favorite movie is "Home alone" and "The Christmas Miracle"
Stepheny

My favorite thing about Christmas is the time spent with family...:)
Jyll Weaver
My favorite thing about Christmastime is CHRISTMAS EVE! I love spending time with family!
Stepheny
My favorite Christmas movie is "The Little Drummer Boy" I remember watching this as a child and how humble and sweet the little boy was. It reminds me of Jesus and how humble and loving He is!
My favorite Christmas song is "O Holy Night"
Yay! so do you have any Favorite Christmas movie/book? Or is there a christmas movie in the giveaway? ehe.
I love how it's cold, but good cold, reminding us Christmas is there and a family time is coming!
Awwwww, can I have your model?!?!?! :) He's adorable!!
Right now I'm loving my new Tim Parton Christmas CD--it's only $10 including shipping and it's definitely worth it! ;)
(Oh...and I think contests are so fun!!! ;))
Morgan
To me... Christmas means Sharing time with family,and focusing on the birth of Christ.
CHRISTmas has become SOOOO commercialized it is absolutly rediculous! Santa Claus, Reindeer, presents.... get get getting.... God GAVE His Son for us, and does the world ever want to give? NO! They just want to GET! What happend to The Manger and baby Jesus? I mean that is why we have CHRISTmas!
Anyway, those are my thoughts on CHRISTmas!
BTW, I love your new template/header! Exactly my point! Keep CHRIST in CHRISTmas! (NOT NOT NOT Xmas! That is BLOCKING out Christ's name!) SHAME ON AMERICA!
Things I love about CHRISTmastime the CHRISTmas tree,the candy canes ,the hot chocolate, the joy of giving, Mangers, icicles, lights, SNOW!
Steph

I LOVE the song "Silver Bells"
I love christmas because it's a time to reflect on your year and what you have done/been during that year. It's a special moment for me.
^^
by the way Jermey looks adorable on that picture! Are you sure he'll be ok to give us the glittery christmas ball? I would not want to make him sad!
I meant Jeremy of course :( I'm sorry I was so out of it yesterday! I need some rest!
I love making Christmas cookies and pies!
Stepheny
Christmas is a good time for eggnog and peppermint icecream (my favorite!!!)
Stepheny
I remember 3 years ago, on Christmas morning, we had everyone over for Christmas breakfast... and I felt bad ALL day. Finally while opening gifts I threw up.... come to find out, I had strep throat AND stomach flu! ON CHRISTMAS! BLah... I never want that again!
Stepheny
Last year, Mom and Dad bought all of us kids matching PJ's and Rabbit Hats!
Stepheny
A favorite Christmas tradition at our house is having everyone over (on my moms side) for Christmas breakfast.... we have waffles, pancakes, toast, eggs, bacon, corn beef hash, sausage, and pretty much EVERYTHING else you can think of! lo ;)
Steph
Oh I just thought of another one... Our church always has a "Goodie Night" where everyone brings their favorite dessert... this year he wants everyone to bring a brownie!
YUM!
We always go see the lights in Michigan City... they have over a million lights on display!
Stepheny
WOW! There sure are lots of comments already!
My favorite thing about Christmas is spending time with family! :)
Lauren

STepheny

I love coffee on cold days!
Stephey
Stepheny is really trying to win to give this as a gift to her mother!!
I remember being a child and waiting at the top of the stairs at night to hear what was going on downstairs--I ended up in bed because it was too late and my brothers were too noisy and mom and dad could hear us.
Needless to say there was always a special place under the tree for each of us kids by mornings light!
I listened to all the songs mentionned and I think I prefer what child is this!
Just stopping in today!! ;) I'm sitting here listening to my Christmas CD ('Oh tidings of comfort and joy'...can't remember the NAME of the song! :P), and thinking about going to write some Christmas cards out! :)
Morgan
Just stopping by again!!! ;)
Morgan
What a contest and I haven't entered yet ?!! ;)
Something I love about Christmas time of year ... SNOW!! Yes, we finally got out first snow -- the kids LOVE it !! :) Has Jeremy gotten to play in his first snow yet?!
Just one more ;)
Something I always love about Christmas morning ... my Mother-in-law always makes cherry muffins and they are so yummy !!!
What Christmas means to me...
As a Child: gettin' the loot from Santa, family parties, chips and dip with punch on the side, grandpa getting peanuts as a present and him totally loving it!
As a Teen: embarrassed to see my relatives, watching the Christmas tree get thrown out into the snow, celebrating it with a friend and her family, wishing things were different
As a twenty-something: Knowing who Christ is and understanding why he was born, Christmas ornaments as presents sent from NJ, opening presents and holiday dinners again with family, knowing what true love is and who it truly comes from
As a mom: Pure joy
Just making my daily blog rounds and couldn't forget to comment on this post!
A favorite Christmas gift that I got last year was a charm bracelet... one charm said "Stepheny Christmas '09" and there was another charm that was an accordion. (since I play that instrument) and for my birthday in Jan. I got a piano charm. I'll probably get another one this year. :)
Stepheny
I really like the "Celtic Christmas" four pack CD's.... they are so beautiful!
Steph
I never get board talking about Christmas... (can you tell???!!!)
I love the beautiful snowfall that we usually get on Christmas morning... big fat beautiful white flakes! :)
Steph
Every year since 2008 we've gone caroling....
We make fudge and cookie plates and place a Candy Cane and a Gospel Tract on top.... then we pass them out and sing at least three songs.... (we usually do about ten plates for ten houses of people that we've got soul-winning to or friends and family)
Sometimes it is so cold, but I never get tired of being a blessing to someone! It is such a joy to watch the happy/encouraged look on their faces and even see some of them cry when we leave!
I LOVE CHRISTMAS TIME!
Steph
Hello today! :) It's raining outside right now and supposed to turn to snow!!!
Morgan
Hahaha! Just have to tell you--here I am sitting here writing on this post again and the SAME SONG is playing on our CD as was yesterday when I was writing you!! LOL
Morgan
Just stopping by again! ;)
Favorite Christmas movie would have to be White Christmas with Bing Crosby and Rosemary Clooney!!! There's certain places we skip but Mom and I love watching that one!!!
Morgan

My favorite part of Christmas is setting up the Christmas Tree and all the Christmas music!

One of my favorite things about this time of year is snow...and we're getting some right now!! It's snowed off and on today and now it's starting to pile up--not much (probably just an inch or two right now), but it's a light powdery snow and so pretty!!
Morgan
Um...just saying hello again. ;)
Morgan

Please pray for us!
I love making some warm chocolate chip cookies on wintery days like this :)
Steph

I enjoy taking lots of pictures at Christmas time! :0
STeph
Oh... I love reading Christmas stories at Christmas time... and reading Luke 2 and watching "Scrooge" I love that movie (but my brother and sisters think it's scary)
lol :)
Stepheny
I enjoy playing in the snow during Christmas time... it is always fun to play in the snow... but doing it towards Christmas time makes you feel... well.... happy and cheerful and excited that Christmas is only 11 days away!
STepheny
My favourite christmas memory was when I was 10 or something like that. We were at my uncle's and it was Christmas day. My mom and my aunt started calling our names (my 2 cousins where around the same age). So we looked at each other asking: what did we do? (you know like we never knew why we were grounded) We went to meet them in the living room not wanting to go and there it was: it had snowed during the night a good 5 inches!!! This was really rare and it was so beautiful to watch... and well we were not grounded either!!! (how it was easy to get good news back then!)
Hellllooooo, Ginger!!! ;)
Morgan
Mmmm...another thing I like about this time of year...hot apple cider...and hot chocolate!!
Morgan
Christmas Memory....
In 2003 we went to FL for Christmas. We rented a condo, and stayed there. (we drove... which we probably will NEVER do again if we go to FL!) We had our cousins over almost every day... we made fudge, and played lots of games!
STepheny
I'll never forget the Christmas that we made Homemade Candy for everyone (neighbors, teachers, people at my dads work) we made so much, I didn't even want to hear the word "candy"!
Steph
Some more favorite songs...
Go Tell
Everything Changed That Night
Angels We Have Heard on High
The First Noel and
Born in My Heart
STepheny
I also remember last year, we made fudge for everyone (again, teachers, neighbors, and workers) I usually licked the spoon or pan when it was cool, and taste tested along the way (you can't give someone something that YOU haven't tried!) I was SOOOO sick of fudge... they had it at the Christmas party, and someone offered me some.... I thought I was going to throw up!
Stepheny
Whoa! 70 entries :O I have been away on vacation too long !! :) One of my favorite things about this time of year ... taking my "little people" out for a snowball fight and helping them make their first snowman !!! :) Fun! Fun! times !!! :)

Lauren

Wow, 70 comments!!!! Just stopping by with my "today hello"! :) It's a rainy, cold, ICY day here--we have a couple of inches of snow and then about a 1/2 inch of ice on top of that and then it's been raining!!

Stepheny
Christmas Memory...
Sledding down a HUGE slope... and on the way up almost getting hit by another sledder! I've never ran so fast in all my life! I felt like every way I ran, the sled that the other rider was on was following me! lol :)
Stepheny
Yay! We are going caroling tonight! I can't wait! :) :)
Jyll Jonnee my baby sister, LOVES the mobie Eloise at Christmastime. It is a really cute movie and I love it myself, but honestly we've watched it 30 times! lol :) That's not joking! She goes around the house and says "Ewise" "Ewise" it's SO sweet!
Stepheny
Goodness you sure know how to keep us all in suspense ... 11 days and you still haven't picked a winner?! :) Maybe you are waiting for the 100th comment!! :)
Have a good day! We are staying indoors eating potato soup and thankful we don't have to get out in the ice and snow!! :)
