Winter Is Coming Giveaway Hop

It is hard to believe that we are already in December! They say that as you get older the years go by faster and I am here to tell you that statement is more true this year than any other time I can remember! December is my ALL TIME favorite time of the year. It is a time of year when people in general are more giving. We as a society tend to want to take care of others at this time of year, so of course that brings joy to my heart.

I personally love December because my favorite holiday happens this month…CHRISTMAS!! I believe I am probably just still a kid at heart. Maybe it is because I am a Christmas baby (my birthday is right before Christmas

we always make up Christmas stockings for the dogs lol

  • We do Christmas Eve at my son & daughter in laws then walk around looking at the decorated houses

  • Growing up on Christmas Eve after the late mass we would make cookies and just see how everyone is doing. I grew up with a number of siblings and it was a way for us to reconnect. My siblings and I now do this with our families.

  • Our tradition is my boyfriend and I avoid all family on Christmas Eve and exchange gifts and play a game. Either board game or video game. Then, on Christmas day we gather at his mothers home for a feast.

  • We get together on the sunday before for christmas with my parents, and meet up with my husbands family on christmas eve or christmas night. We usually also do a day of cookie making with the kids the week before christmas.

  • My son and I make homemade hamburger bun on Christmas day to put our holiday ham on for dinner.

  • It has been a family tradition for the last few years to gather at one of my children’s homes on Christmas Eve to catch up with each other and to wrap gifts together after my grandchildren have gone to bed

  • We go to my sister’s place for dinner & exchange of presents! We watch football & Christmas movies and do lots of cooking & baking ! 🙂

  • We do gather at my brother’s house for Christmas to exchange presents. It’s always a fun time. Thanks for the giveaway!

  • We get together Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. It’s hard to divide up time evenly between family. Very stressful when it shouldn’t be.

  • Yes we gather with family on Christmas Eve. On Christmas Day we meet up with friends that don’t have family near and we go out for Chinese food!

  • Well, we used to, but that was before Covid- now, I’m lucky if I get to greet extended family online, I live too far away to go visit.

  • Every year, my extended family gets together and we bake and decorate sugar cookies together. Now my kids get to join us as well. We do gather together at some point during the holiday but we have been moving away from Christmas Eve and Day so that each family has time alone. We pick a different day to get together.

  • Time is indeed fleeting. I have almost no family left – and I miss them all year, but especially over the holidays

  • On Christmas Eve we drive around looking at Christmas lights and then watch a Christmas movie or two.

  • I miss the lovely family holiday traditions we had (my family is all gone now). Appreciate every moment!

  • I like staying inside a warm house with my cute hubby, playing card/dice games, and just looking out at the picture perfect landscape and trees covered with snow! Also, and most importantly, celebrating our Lord’s Birthday at Holy Mass! Thanks and God bless!
