The best Christmas present I got as a child was a big bubblegum machine. The one that excepts coins...I was SUPER excited.

The best gift overall definitely is an early one for this year. Tomorrow it will be a month ago that my 3 year old had her 2nd open heart surgery. She is doing wonderful...she is beautiful and amazing. SHE is my most precious gift this season and always!! Happy Holidays everyone!



What an amazing gift!

12 Days of Christmas- Day 9 Event


Meet Carmen! She is made from two of my favorite fabrics from one of my all time favorite fabric collections, Meadowsweet. The idea for this giveaway came when we took the kids to see Santa last week and Abby wanted to sing 'Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer' with "the extras". lol All five of us sang it in the car and Rob and I impressed the kids with some "extras" that they didn't know! 

For a chance to win this little gal... just leave me a comment letting me know what your favorite holiday song or carol is! Religious (all!), non-religious, serious, silly... whatever song makes you want to listen or sing along! You have 24 hours to comment and we'll pick the winner by a random draw!
