Your humble and thoughtful gifts will probably bring more happiness and joy than any expensive, extravagant one. Homemade gifts are very special.

In some ways it's a blessing.<br /><br />I love your post.<br /><br />We exchanged names this year with my sister's family and I am making my sister a sweater even though I did not get her name (I am a bad girl!)<br /><br />We will be driving to Colorado for a few days over Christmas to be with my sister and her family and I am looking forward to that.<br /><br />May the Christmas spirit fill your heart with peace and joy and love.Suzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16413569730392966229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8430245182138060252.post-83947474556461686442009-11-28T04:24:30.374-08:002009-11-28T04:24:30.374-08:00Right now with the kiddies, Christmas is more abou...Right now with the kiddies, Christmas is more about the tree, the lights, the decorations, Santa, presents... We're slowly trying to introduce the real meaning of Christmas to them, but I don't think they really "get" it just yet. :)Buckeroomamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02408502555249594576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8430245182138060252.post-40550175889217698992009-11-28T03:44:53.354-08:002009-11-28T03:44:53.354-08:00Now that my kids are grown up, we celebrate Christ...Now that my kids are grown up, we celebrate Christmas reverently and quietly. (Thanksgiving is raucous)<br /><br />The commercial aspect of the holiday is not important to us. Doing BIG decorating is not important. I'm now about lovely little touches. The whole thing, for me, is about Christ's birth and the wonder of it. Music plays a HUGE role.People Who Know Me Would Say:https://www.blogger.com/profile/04621641188403948733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8430245182138060252.post-20045026225836842662009-11-28T00:16:53.739-08:002009-11-28T00:16:53.739-08:00Nothing like that and I wish we did it really is w...Nothing like that and I wish we did it really is what makes the holidays special.

I just love it. It is made up of mismatched vintage costume jewelry earrings.... The "silver" piece behind the little tree was from an after Christmas sale at Lowes last year. I believe I paid $1 for it!!!Ina in Alaskahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07163454431322742148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8430245182138060252.post-67402084867164891202009-11-27T16:28:17.403-08:002009-11-27T16:28:17.403-08:00Christmas music always helps chase the blahs away!...Christmas music always helps chase the blahs away!

You have the spirit, you have the most loving philosophy and you have summed up what this season is meant to be about.<br /><br />I'm taking a page from you and remembering what really matters and not going to get lost in the sea of insanity, commercialism and "pomp".<br /><br />For me it's going to remain simple, easy and joyful and all about love, spirit and hope. I love this season for all that it brings and all that it allows me to give.Sherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08271529958269038071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8430245182138060252.post-13200020647165830322009-11-27T11:45:15.524-08:002009-11-27T11:45:15.524-08:00Wearing cozy clothes if it's cold enough is a ...Wearing cozy clothes if it's cold enough is a wish of mine too! <br />Going to try to decorate today.
