I love being with friends and family during the holidays ,feasting,catching up on old times, watching rudolph and the grinch.Beautiful brooch my fingers are crossed.Marian
I love EVERYTHING about the holidays. As soon as it’s socially acceptable to put lights up (and honestly, usually a few weeks before that) I’m in full festive mode. I love decorating and crafting with friends… and baking and cooking with them too. Also, I’m in Calgary but my fam is in Ontario, so holiday time means getting to go home and visit. I’d love to take your little snowman friend home with me this year :)
I love watching my kids on Christmas morning!

Love the owls!
What a cute snowman!! The best part about the holidays is buying gifts! Most of the year I hate shopping – but in Sept/Oct. I love to go pick out items to give to everyone! Yes – I start early :)
I love decorating (it’s a bonding time for me and my middle child – the others aren’t much into it!) and baking and shopping and wrapping and traveling to see family and friends – it’s all good!
I love the huge real Christmas tree covered with family ornaments at my parents’ house.

I love the hope, warmth and good cheer generally associated with the holidays. I always try to do some random acts of kindness in my community to spread the holiday spirit.
While I would not hang this ornament on our tree, I think it is very cool and unique…a Zombie Snowman!

I love the holidays because Christ is born again in our hearts. And to celebrate that with friends and family during the holidays is wonderful.
I love nearly everything about the holidays. The cold weather, the festive atmosphere. But, most of all being home with my family.
I love all abou these holidays… but above all I love ot see my sons enjoying them!
Thanks for the chance!

I love the special traditions…we go and see a nativity display at a nearby church, with over 800 loaned creches of all sizes, materials, from all different countries and people. It’s a fun tradition, we are very quiet and just in awe of this sight each year!
I love gift giving and the meaning behind Christmas, not the Jolly fat guy, but the other guy who came to show us all true love.
Blogged.

My favorite thing about the holiday is the snow, and seeing my family, who I only get to see at the holidays.
Reeeta…good to see you are still cranking out such cute crafts (wish I could go to craft fair but there is a darn ocean in the way)
I love the time spent with family over the holidays (which is something I’m going to miss this year). My aunt does has great hotpot for new years usually….sigh..
My favorite holiday craft at the moment is:
