December Daily Giveaways: Elle's Studio + Evalicious

Wow..look at all those posts!!!
Being with family!! We always take off of work the week of Christmas and get to spend family time together!

Congratulations on your Top 1000 ranking! Those Christmas Journal kits look gorgeous...I'm most looking forward to being able to relax with friends and family at the various gatherings during the season.

Spending time with my family!! love these rare reunions and really, really treasure them! :) But I'm also looking forward to making (and buying) presents for my dear ones...love the looks on their faces when they open the packages :)
Thanks for the chance to win! The kits look quite yummy! *lol*

I love everything, the decorating and the celebrating of traditions with family close by. As my children grow, establishing new traditions is a welcome addition to our holiday events.

I am most looking forward to a christmas baking day with my mom and sisters. We have been doing it about 5 years now. It is a crazy, messy, yummy day of holiday cheer

I am looking forward to baking cookies & making up some packages to give to friends. I lost my Mom 5 years ago and we always did the baking together - we were a tag team of sorts. Since losing her I haven't much wanted to do any cookie baking. Last year I hosted a cookie decorating party for my church's junior high girls and it renewed some of my excitement about Christmas baking. Oh, and cookie eating too - looking forward to that!!!

I'm looking forward to spend time with my family. To have a candlelight diner with the 6 of us. No rushing, no waiting job, no sport clubs. Just relaxing and enjoying each other.
I love to decorate, sing along with the Christmas hits on the radio, playing board games with the kids, shopping for presents.
just the hole Christmas feeling

Looking forward to a slowdown in extracurricular activities to just be at home more.

I am most looking forward to watching Christmas specials with my son and starting a nice fire!!

Being with my family and doing Christmasy things together. Baking, Baking and Baking. Eating, eating and eating.

My favorite part of the holidays is all the lights and decorations up in the neighborhood. That and making a new tradition with my family.

...the christmas markets (wondering if it's a german thing or if ou find them in the States like these here...), gingerbread and glas christmas baubles...
And doing my december daily album :)

I am so looking forward to traveling to New York to visit my family. And to get to go to New York City!

Spending time with my family. Looking forward to making cookies and candies with my kids. This has been a tradition since they were little. They are in high school and they still enjoy doing this every year. We have so much fun! :)

I always look forward to warm cozy fireplaces and the look on my daughter's eyes when the tree is all decorated and lit up for the first time that year.

thanks for the great prompts to be ready to be in the moment this season(and all the time). i am most looking forward to watching my 2 boys 41/2 and 8, they love everything about Christmas time, from the Nutcracker to decorating to buying presents for others to making their Christmas lists. to be in the moment and enjoy instead of trying to make it all perfect, that's what i'm looking forward to.

Turning 30 to start off the season! I always look forward to baking gingerbread houses for all of our friends to decorate.

looking forward to cooler weather, decorating the house inside and out with dh & ds, and just enjoying the mystic that is the holiday season!

I am looking forward to my kidlets and their excitement. They are at great ages where everything is still magical. I want to hang onto that as long as I can :)

In the 6 years that my husband and i have been married, we have never put up a christmas tree. now that we have kids (a 2yr old & 2- 10 mos olds), we've got to get our act together and i'm looking forward to all the holiday decorating. and i've got a major sweet tooth, so i'm also looking forward to all the baking (and eating, of course) :)
