I can’t believe it, but it’s already Christmas Eve. All the presents are wrapped, the food is cooking, and my family is preparing to gather for our traditional festivities. Before I take a break from blogging to savor the season, I wanted to wish each of you a merry, bright, peaceful holiday. Whether you celebrate Christmas, Hanukkah, or Kwanzaa, this is a beautiful time of year to reflect on our lives and give thanks for our many blessings. I count you among my blessings—I am so grateful to have so many wonderful people in my life: co-workers, Consultants, customers, neighbors, family—each one of you is a friend and I thank you for enriching my life this year.
I also want to thank you for sharing your holiday memories on the blog. I am enjoying reading each story and being inspired by you. Keep those great stories coming, and I’ll keep reading (we all will!). I’ll draw 10 winners of free stamp sets early next week, so check back to see whether you’ve been selected. Until then, may your celebrations be safe and happy and your holiday replete with meaning.

Merry Christmas to you! I am glad that you're feeling better and enjoying the holiday with your family. Rest up, enjoy yourself, and hurry back with more of your beautiful artwork and wonderful recipes!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas to you and your family Jeanette! And Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all of you who are reading this blog. :o)
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas! My family had a quiet fun little Christmas at 2 am this morning. My husband has had to take a job working evening shift so he doesn't get home until 12:30pm and then he's so tired the next day if he had to get up early in the morning for presents. So we surprised him when he got home and celebrate Christmas so he (and the rest of us could sleep in). Now, it's off to church and visit the relatives!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas Jeanette, we hope you have the merriest of wishes from our family to yours!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas to you and your family! may God Bless you richly in the coming year. I wish you the best for 2009.

ReplyDeleteChristmas is over already... Hope you and your family had a wonderful time.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you are feeling better. Not the time to get sick (like there's a time huh...)
LOVE the posts. Have you considered a post where we can ask questions of curosity about the company on ideas, thoughts who or how does one come up with ideas, etc.. I have so many questions of curosity... I know you probably have a limit of what can be answered. OKAY... I'll just ask:
When we post comments on the ctmh bb's of things we would like to see come out - do these get actually looked at? and if so - discussed?
just a thought of curosity...
My fondest Christmas memories now are remembering all the ways we tried to keep our daughter from finding out there was no Santa Claus. All the elaborate things we did to keep Santa in her heart as long as possible.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas and Happy New Year! Wishing you happiness in the new year!

Dear Jeanette,
ReplyDeleteI am counting the blessings of the number of hours I have to spend with my college-aged kids as they are home for Winter Break! I am so grateful for God's gift of his Son, and for the opportunity at Christmastime to spend with family!
God Bless,
Katy
