I love this idea! I’ve thought about doing a year round tree for every Holiday (how cute would Valentine’s, Easter, Halloween, etc. be!) but I’d never thought about just doing it for Fall and then Christmas. Thanks!

There are so many traditions that I love it’s hard to pick just one. I guess I’d have to go with our traditional Christmas morning breakfast (Barefoot Contessa recipes) @ home just the 4 of us. It is so rare to have any time for just the 4 of us durring the week of Christmas as we are usually running from house to house to do Christmas with family. Our laid back Christmas morning is time that would never want to miss. Just my husband, kids & I (plus the cats).
I love watching the kids faces as they open their presents. Also I love family getting together and visiting over a good meal. = )
My favorite tradition is wrapping presents for my kids.We save it for Christmas eve after the kids are asleep.Even though they dont believe in santa anymore, its always fun to see their faces when they see the gifts ppiled under the tree.Its also a nice time for me and my husband to reconnect.This time of the year is busy, so any time alone is welcome.
The family Christmas party at my Aunt’s house! She makes her famous pumpkin cream cheese rolls and peanut butter balls, my Nana makes her famous rolls, we feast on great food, play games, do a Yankee Christmas Swap and have a great time! We also watch old homemade videos from when my cousins and I were little. It’s a fun time had by all every year!

I love spending time with my family!! We all live in different states and it’s nice to get together with everyone for Christmas. I also love giving, whatever I can, to a less fortunate family. This year has been really tough for my family, but thanks to couponing, I have enough stock pile items to donate some food and health & beauty items. I would really love to win this mixer as I gave my brand new one to my best friend a few years ago. She really needed something to brighten her day because her mother was diagnosed with breast cancer. She loves to bake and I knew one of these would come in handy for her. I had gotten one as a gift that year and instead of keeping it for myself, I gave it to her and it felt really good doing that! There are times now where I wish I had one, but I would never take back what I did for my friend. Unfortunately, her mother just lost her long battle to cancer 2 months ago.
Love making cookies and treats for the kids and they love eating them.
I love the holidays and am excited about this giveaway.

I love watching them tear open the paper and get excited!). I also love turning the radio to the station that plays Christmas music on Thanksgiving (that’s the day they start playing it here).
we make the most amazing homemade pizzas and sing lots of songs.
Our favorite tradition is an annual Gingerbread House party!
I love lighting up the tree.
My favorite holiday tradition is the whole family (a total of 27) getting together Christmas Eve for a nice dinner,and to open our gifts to each other.
I have a couple of favorite holiday traditions. One is the day after Thanksgiving, all of my sisters and daughter get together and make enough cookies to share with each other. The other is watching my grand kids decorate the Christmas tree. Nothing like having just the bottom of the tree decorated. So awesome.
My favorite holiday tradition is gathering together with our families and singing Christmas carols. It gets everyone in such a festive mood!
My favorite holiday tradition is cooking our turkey (plus pork, roast, sweet potatoes, etc.) in our imu (Polynesian underground oven). Yup, just like how you see at the luaus on TV, my family cooks our Thanksgiving food underground – it just doesn’t feel like Thanksgiving if we don’t have kalua turkey! It’s a long process of re-digging the hole, removing any weeds/dead grass/debris, building a fire, putting the rocks in, preparing the meat by placing them in pans with lots of layers of tin foil, and then placing the pans on the rocks when the rocks are hot enough. After that, several layers of banana leaves, potato sacks (that have been soaked in water), and, lastly, dirt seals up the imu. It takes about 4-5 hours for all the food to cook. The result: a moist, tender, fall-off-the bone turkey with unforgettable island flavor! Yum, yum
My favorite holiday tradition is spending time with my family and all of us making homemade Cinnamon Rolls together on Christmas Eve. Even my Three year old Granddaughter gets involved and makes her own creation. With everyone’s busy lives, this is priceless!
The whole family coming together. Everything else is so small compared to spending time with loved ones
My favorite tradition is going to the Christmas Eve service at church then opening presants with the family afterwards.
My favorite holiday tradition is having my Christmas eve party, with all the goodies. Nuttin but junk, but it is all sooooooo good, and hey once a year, why not. We all visit and play games, turn on the 24 hour marathon of “A Christmas Story”, and eat till we cant eat no more. And finally we open one gift each. Happy Holidays everyone!
I love to bake. This would be awesome!
Every Christmas Eve, we go to church as a family and after the service, we all receive a glass with a candle in it. We always see who is able to get their candles home and in the house without them blowing out (which is a challenge in the snow and wind). Once inside, we get our pj’s on and turn out all the lights except for our candles and the Christmas tree and sit quietly for a while.
Cookie baking day with the family! This would be a bonus! Thank you for the chance!

Christmas Eve our whole family gets together for dinner and gifts. LOTS of fun!
it’s a tradition that my husband and I have started for the 2 of us…we sleep in on Christmas day, wake up and make coffee and waffles, and sit on the couch watching a Christmas movie while the tree is lit…it’s a time for us to just be together before we go visit family.
My favorite traditions are having clam chowder for christmas dinner, decorating the tree and visting family.
My favorite family tradition is cooking with my mom. Nothing says holidays like preparing delicious food with a loved one, for loved ones. With my husband recently laid off, my family has been left in a state of financial despair. We’re left unable to christmas shop at all, even for our two daughters. We will appreciate getting together for the holidays this year, more than most, because its all we have to look forward to. To win this would be such a blessing, words can’t even describe. I love all of your giveaways, post ect to help families that need all the help they can get. Thank for the giveaway! God Bless!
My favorite traditions are on Christmas Eve. After attending the candlelight service at church, we come home and each person gets to open a wearable gift. It’s usually pj’s that they can wear to open gifts on Christmas morning. Then they get to open up a new ornament that represents something they have done that year. My husband then reads the story “Tale of Three Trees” to the kids. We round out the evening by making s’mores in the fireplace and tracking Santa online.

My favorite tradition is Game night with all the family. It is something I look forward to all year.

After they are sleep mommy eats a couple of the cookies and takes out the letter in Grandpa’s handwriting saying thanks I enjoyed the cookies, I saved a couple for you guys!!! Its sooo exciting to see their faces. they are 8 and 2 and I have been doing this with my eight year old since he was 3!

My favorite holiday tradition is decorating the christmas tree and then sometime during the holidays..eating pumpkin PIE!! yummy lol I can’t wait to start our own with my family when my husbands back from deployment.
This is what I do for Christmas since money is so tight I bake and give it all away (helps me maintain my weight better that way too!) to our friends and family members. This year it’s no bakes, gingerbread cookies, molasses, choco chip, fudge, and breads all being baked and given out. This prize would be a tremendous help!!
Getting together and cooking up a storm.
My favorite Christmas tradition is when we put up our Christmas tree- grown right on our family tree farm. I super love Christmas music and I blast it thru the house, dance around, think of all the stories of each of my ornaments collected over the years and just.smile.

I would love for our favorite family tradition to be to have all of our 7 children and their families together at one time – any time – any place. It is so hard when they’re all spread out and spread thin with their own traditions.

Up ahead!”

We went to Disneyland last year – it was the first trip for our youngest – and it was memorable. We all won’t forget when he met Mickey Mouse for the first time.
