[Thanks for helping me get into the...]

I have a secret confession to make. I decided to do this giveaway for selfish reasons. I was having a bit of trouble getting into Christmas spirit this year and felt I needed a little help. Giving this gift and hearing your comments about what makes Christmas special for all of you has been the greatest treat ever! It truly has brought on the Christmas Spirit for me and I'm riding high on a holiday buzz. And all thanks to you! Yesterday was a great day filled with holiday baking and stocking making. I pumped the Christmas tunes and played with my little ones. It was perfection.
Amanda from Swish and Swanky also helped me out. She asked me to do a Christmas interview that really helped set the mood. You have to hop on over and read all the other interviews, it's such a special treat.

Oh and it's not to late to enter the giveaway!! You have until Dec. 17th at midnight, so keep those comments coming!

    I'd love to know more about that canvas you have with words on it. Did you buy it somewhere, or make it yourself? What does it say? I've been wondering about this every time you post a photo with it in the background and now I am too curious to not ask! :)

    I keep checking back to see if you've replied, but no such luck! Do you have an email address I can send to instead?

    Thanks!

    Hi, sorry for the delay in responding about the canvas (holidays and all). I actually painted that for my husband on Valentines last year. It's a dark brown background (painted on canvas) with white script. The writing is lyrics from one of our favorite songs, Two Step by Low.
