Celebrate! {a giveaway too.}

Whew!  Here we are back again after a somewhat whirlwind trip (we'd do it again in a New York minute).  We had the extreme pleasure of joining in the festivities of a beautiful wedding just last weekend, and hope to give you a few shots to look at, after we go through the 700+ pictures that we took.  But, you'll have to be content with off-the-cuff poses most of the time, as we were completely having way too much fun to stop and smile!

So, we think it's high-time to celebrate.  Anything and everything.  Be it a beautiful wedding, good friends, the New Year, or a new piece of fabric.  That's where we come in.  We've already talked about how much we adore Tanya and were itching to get our hands on her book, and right before we hopped in the car to leave on our trip what do you think showed up on our doorstep?  You guessed it.  Not just one, but several copies of her lovely book.  We want to share one with one of you.  Sound good??  Read on, friends! 

It also seemed fitting to throw in an adorable fat quarter stack of Tanya's latest fabric collection, Sugar Hill. (If you want to celebrate something extra hard, Sugar Hill's 25% off starting tomorrow until January 13th!)

I found you all from my friend Jenny. Favorite Christmas memories are spending time with my family celebrating the real reason for the season! Love Tanya's fabrics too!

Oh enter me, please! Favorite New Years memory is looking back on my past goals for the year and seeing how many I accomplished. :)

I really love Tanya's stuff too! My favourite New Year's memory is from 2010/11. I spent the evening with my family at my sister's house and we played fun video games and made oliebollen (kinda like donuts - a tradition for the Dutch). We stayed up super late and just enjoyed each others company.

My favorite Christmas memory is celebrating with my Grandma Pat. She would have a list of things for us to do... songs to sing, dances she taught us, having us guess how many ornaments were dangling from the ceiling. Boy I miss her, but what great memories!

Favorite Christmas memory was the year my husband proposed marriage. He hung the ring on a chain on the Christmas tree several weeks before Christmas & I didn't even notice! He proposed on Christmas Eve after showing me where the ring was on the tree. Best Christmas ever.

Favorite Christmas memory from this year is seeing the Grand Canyon with my grown children and taking a zillion pictures!

I didn't even realize I missing out on the newsletter! Well, that's been fixed.

Favorite holiday memories all have a few things in common--family, laughter and feelings of great contentment.

Favorite Christmas memory was our annual family Christmas program with music and scripture. I LOVE it every year!

My favorite thing about Christmas and New Years is that we always get to spend it with our cousins and have entirely to much fun. :)

I love your site! Soooo much cuteness. I especially love the tutorials. I've made a few a the things from it. :)

One of my favorite Christmas memories was eating a yummy cinnamon roll/egg casserole/fruit salad breakfast with my family!

[Miss Rachel P.]

My favorite memory has always been the times we've gone looking at lights on the way back from my aunt's Christmas Eve party. :) We sing carols, we "Ooo" and "Ahh", laugh and smile, and snuggle up all squished in the car with the cousins! :D Happy times!

And then the Christmases we've caroled to some of our friends and church members. :) So much fun to chat in the car and hop out to bring some cheer to others! :D

{This is such a fabulous giveaway ladies! THANK YOU!!!} :D *hugs*
