December Daily Giveaways: Elle's Studio + Evalicious

Decorating as a family - inside and out, especially the tree, baking cookies for Santa, the anticipation of Christmas Eve, but mainly having quality time as a family during one of the most exciting times of the year.

I'm looking forward to: celebrating Jesus' birth; a Ladies Christmas Tea at church; creating and crafting holiday gifts; baking special treats; a trip to Disney World; and spending lots of time with family, family, and more family!
Thanks for the special blessing of your inspiring blog and your giveaways!

I most looking forward to decorating the house and tree with my 2 daughters, who are 7 & 5.

Putting up all the decorations and taking the time to make a fire and play board games -- just taking time to slow down and enjoy each other's company.
Congrats on the blog, it is great!

the thing i look forward to most every holiday season is the gathering with family and friends
and making the handmade gifts.

I always look forward to having all 4 of my kids at home together. It's just like heaven to me! :)

I'm looking forward to the feeling of Christmas. The thrill of giving and remembering why we celebrate this day. I'm going to do a ton of baking just for the purpose of giving away, and I can't wait!

I love it all, the earlier, the better. I love the family get togethers, the singing and caroling, the glitter, etc. I am awed by the Miraculous Birth all over again. Decorating- Vintage all the way!! Karen

I can't wait to celebrate the holidays this year with my sweet baby. It will be her first Christmas!

Christmas my favorite time of year - cannot limit to one thing; making holiday cards, baking, trimming the tree, caroling, our daugher's first Christmas, our family's first Christmas in Maine!

Ali- LOVE your daily inspiration!
This Christmas season I am really looking forward to spending time together with extended family. It's been a tough year for many of us and we could really use the company (and comfort!) of one another.

I love all of our traditions we have made as a family. We have built on the traditions we remember growing up and made them our own. Making sugar cookies, the movie ELF (love that movie), fires in the fireplace, sausage gravy on Christmas morning, shopping out in the cold etc. Love the entire month!

Family traditions, slowing down, being in the moment, decorating the tree, listening to music, baking, crafts, being with my loved ones and my little ones!

I treasure the little moments during the holiday season. Watching the joy on my 6yr olds face, as we pull out her favorite ornaments... baking and decorating cookies with my kids... sitting with the lights out watching the lights of the tree twinkle on the ceiling. These are all the moments that I can't get back as my kids get older.

Watching my son enjoy the holiday season. Every year it gets better as he gets older.

I'm looking forward to quiet time with family and friends...a crackling fire, good food, good company, festive decorations...time to appreciate each other and all that we have.

I am looking forward to making my gifts this Christmas season. It'll be a lean one this year since I got laid off a few months ago, but that's okay, because the Christmas season isn't about commercialism. It's about something much deeper.

I'm looking forward to the traditions and time spent with family. I love decorating the house and working on Christmas crafts.

HI I just read my comment, but its not mine? My comment is titled under the name Lani instead of Amy Albert. Just wanted to let you know

I'm looking forward to putting up the advent calendar and watching my kids open a box every day...only some of the boxes will have little gifts inside, mostly they will be fun family activities to do like watch a Christmas movie or make Christmas crafts, etc.
