My favorite things about the holiday season are the smell of pine, singing Christmas carols unabashedly, candles, fudge, peppermint chocolate, fireplaces, family, and last but not least, a few days off work to remember the important things in life.Sarah McCormickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07014165576921254989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6941203371178250967.post-68389179260478979762011-11-28T18:26:27.496-07:002011-11-28T18:26:27.496-07:00Wow these are SO CUTE!

We wrap up the television in wrapping paper and then make it a point to do more special things as a family during the Christmas season. It's wonderful, but it can definitely be hard because the little ones and I have to find other ways to get that "down time." But it's so much fun and I know my kids will cherish it as adults! Great illustrations :)Emily Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16274893627197327710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6941203371178250967.post-87195465927543182542011-11-28T17:30:23.041-07:002011-11-28T17:30:23.041-07:00Exchanging Christmas cards and letters through sna...Exchanging Christmas cards and letters through snail mail is one of my favorite things about the holidays.
