1 – 200 of 609 Newer› Newest»I'm looking forward to spending xmas with my parents for the first time in 16 years! Since I moved away I haven't been back home for the holidays, so this will be fun. I'm especially looking forward to seeing my nieces.
I love the Christmas music!
I love everything in Christmas!
My son is 5 and still believes in santa. Last year he laid in bed and called out to me to ask if Santa had been yet. What I love is that he isn't really going on and on about what he wants. Also we will be spending Chriatmas with my Mum and dad who live a fair distance from us. Its a wonderful relaxing break for us. Thanks for hosting a giveaway.
Family being together!
Thank you for sharing and Merry Christmas.
I'm looking forward to my family all being together at Christmas after a difficult year
I love dragging all the gifts to the post office to mail to my family & I love waking up early on Xmas day, opening the Santa Stocking & eating too much chocolate before breakfast!
the family being and dining together.

My favourite thing is getting the tree up and decorated!
I will try my luck :) Thanks for th giveaway! My favourite thing about holidays time... I think that spending more time with my BF. He's working very much and we do not see ourselves very often :)

Since moving to Australia from Michigan, I most look forward to snow since it is near 90s already. In the three years I have lived here, it hasn't snowed...probably won't as it is summer Down Under.
I most look forward to Christmas morning, reading the story of Jesus' birth from the Bible and opening gifts.
I'm participating in the Sew, Mama, Sew Giveaway Day! I hope you have time to stop over and enter my giveaway at homemakerhoney.com

I'm looking forward to having Christmas lunch with my family and my boyfriend's family - it's the first time we're combining everyone together.
And the turkey!
Thank you so much for the giveaway. I love the Christmas tree! We haven't been able to get one yet and I am so bummed.
Although we don't do Christmas, we enjoy having the time off work and school, and getting to spend some family time together.
Time at home with my family!!
Great giveaway.
Thanks.
Andi :-)
Thanks for the great giveaway.
I most look forward to Churros and Chocolate whilst strolling through the city lights with my family. And seeing what treat my daughter puts out for Santa...always a good laugh.
I'm looking foward to the food :-)
This holiday season has been a bit different. My mom was recently diagnosed with cancer and I tell you...the news has made me look at every day differently. This holiday season I am so blessed to be able to spend time with the people I love.

I moved 300 miles away from my family at the start of this year, so I am looking forward to going home and spending time with them over Christmas! Thanks for the giveaway, your fabrics are very pretty.
I look forward to my Mum's christmas pudding most of all. I have been trying to make one the same but still haven't got it, seriously yummy.

What is there not to love about Christmas!
Best part of the Holidays it watching White Christmas with whoever in my family is around and singing all the songs along with the movie. :)
This year everything is such a wonder for my 2 year old. I'm so looking forward to the day of gift giving. In the meantime we are really enjoying our bible story time.
My favorite part is getting together with my family!

Mine is all the hilarious Christmas movies! Elf, Home Alone, The Santa Clause, etc. AMAZING.

I also love the time spent with family. Christmas music, baking, giving gifts, and EATING!!!!
I love this time of year because it seems so magical and people embrace a colourful world.
I'm looking forward to spending time with family, some of whom I don't see as often now that we're all a little older. My cousins will be home from college, my uncle will be local for the first time in several years... It'll be a bit like the old days again. Goodness, it's not even noon and I'm all nostalgic!
I love having my house decorated. My fiancee puts pine garlands all around the doorways and then decorates them!

I love how excited my daughter gets, each year it gets more fun!
I love to host the Christmas Eve Dinner at my house for a dozen family members. It's always a treat to gather around the table and talk for hours!
I love all the love and laughter with family and friends at this time of year! Of course the decorations, lights and food are wonderful as well...but in the end it's just the feeling of joy that comes with everyone getting together!
Cookies, music, snow! aea at pobox.com
This year I am most looking forward to my 3 year old son's reaction. He realizes more what is going on this year and is so excited.
Nice giveaway! My favorite part of Christmas is putting up the tree and laying on the floor to watch the shapes the lights make on the ceiling. I've loved doing that since I was a little girl and now I'm doing it with my kids.
I'm looking forward to seeing my daughter's face on Christmas morning. She's just about 3 and is really getting into the holidays!
I look forward to seeing my family since we are 9 hours away. It is a long drive but worth it to be there when they open their homemade gifts!!
Great giveaway!!

I'm a teacher, so what I look forward to most during the holidays is...well, the holidays. Two weeks of rest (and marking - can't forget the marking).
I most look forward to decorating the tree, and to spending time with my Mum. Every Christmas Eve my Mum and I (and now Alex too) watch White Christmas, and sometimes another movie too, and pig out on junky-type food! It's great! And I'm not going to lie...I also look forward to the presents ;)
Having time off from work and spending time with family
I am definitely looking forward to the holiday with my kiddos. Two boys, 5 and 2, and this will be a really exciting year ;)
I may sound like a grinch, but I'm just not into Christmas this year. We're not even putting up the tree. I most look forward to it all being over and done with. And to a better year in 2011.
Decorating the house is what I like the most! The kids and I always start decorating on December 1st but I'm still making ornaments; each year I make some more new ornaments and I think next year we won't need to use any store-bought ornaments, it will be all handmade!
Thanks for this wonderful giveaway!

Cheers!

My favorite thing about the holidays is family. We're not going home this year, but hoping to make the 1500 mile trekk next year! There is not a single thing about the Christmas season I don't like - down to music, decorating, cocoa and cider, cozy sweaters, fuzzy socks and pretty quilts that come out at this time... it's the best time of year!

What cute fabric! I am missing my family this year as we live across the country and none of us are travelling, so I am looking forward to some plain old time off work. My husband will have a week long break from work and school and I have about the same, so it will be really nice to spend some time together.
I like wrapping gifts. It's so much fun to hide gifts for the people I love under pretty paper. :)
What I'm looking forward to the most is having the family all together! :)
I look forward to either seeing or talking with my family - we live so far apart it is hard to get together every year.
