O Holy Night is my favorite song of the season, but White Christmas is a close second. My sister and I were obsessed with that movie growing up, so it has a special place in my heart :)

Great giveaways - thanks so much Ali and vendors!
I love Breath of Heaven sung by Vince Gill, Mary do You Know sung by Clay Aiken, and Joni Mitchell's River sung by James Taylor.
And...I love all the traditional Christmas songs we sing at our church's Candlelight service on Christmas Eve, gives me goosebumps thinking about it.

I absolutely love The Christmas Song sung by Nat King Cole. And my favorite Norwegian Chrismas song right now is En stjerne skinner.
I would love to win the Cocoa Daisy kit since I still have a bit to go before my December Daily album base is finished.

I love Christmas music so it is hard to choose. O Holy Night is one of my favorites but 12 Days of Christmas we sing every Christmas eve as a family so it has a lot of meaning to me. Thank you so much for all the great give aways!!!

I have so many favorites- but probably the two that make me feel the most reverent and filled with the Christmas spirit are Silent Night and O Holy Night.
