Christmas Contest!!!

OK, I wanted to get some prizes rounded up before I announced my Christmas contest.  So, here it is!!  I want you to tell me about your favorite Christmas tradition and how your family gives to others during the holiday season.  I would also like to see pics of any holiday crafts you enjoy!!  I love crafting, especially around Christmas!!  Your comments must be posted under “Christmas Contest” on my blog to be entered into the drawing.  I will randomly draw 6 names at the end of the contest and those 6 people will win some fabulous prizes!!  Oh, I am so excited!!
I bet you want to know what you will be winning?  Well, here is what I have so far:

Two $25.00 dollar gift certificates to the Desert River Inn Restaurant(Umatilla, Or.)
Three $50.00 dollar gift certificates to the Barrel House Café & Wine Bar (Kennewick, Wa.)
One $25.00 dollar gift certificates to the Barrel House Café & Wine Bar (Kennewick, Wa.)

These would make for an awesome date night with your hunny, don’t you think?  I do!!


*For those of you who do not live in this area, I will be getting gift cards to Starbucks for your prizes!! 

The contest will end on Christmas day so, get to writing!!

Christmas Contest!!

So, I am trying to come up with a great idea for my Christmas contest and I can't seem to come up with anything.  Do any of you have ideas for a contest you would like to participate in?  Please post your ideas here.  I would like to start it this week!  Thanks for helping me out!!

Mike = Sarcasm

If any of you know my husband, than you know how sarcastic he can be!  Here is the latest of his sarcasm: we were driving around looking for a Christmas tree and listening to the radio.  I saw a sign that said, "Friends are like snowflakes, >insert something about being unique and different" (I can't remember exactly what it said).  I read it out loud because I liked what it said.  And Mike being Mike, replied: "Friends are like snowflakes, cold and hard to shovel off of the driveway".  I laughed because it was funny and because I know he didn't really mean it.  He was just being his sarcastic self.
