Our favourite part about winter is just the happy atmosphere that the holidays bring. Lots of baking, special tv shows, more time spent with other family members who live far away!

I would love to win this. I think the favorite part about the Holidays is the cheeriness that seems to overtake the majority of people. Smiling faces abound with hope and goodwill.
It has become a tradition in my family that each of the graddaughters get an American Girl Doll for Christmas and if they desire (and they usually do!!) one for their birthday. My greatest joy of the holidays- that is so easy- watching the wonder, suprise and sheer delight in the eyes of the little ones as they open the packages from Santa on Christmas morning. I remember back to my childhood when my sister and I would wake up and sneak to look at the tree- half afraid that we would be too early and Santa had not yet arrived. Once we saw the toys, we would run into Mom and Dad’s room yelling Santa Came, Santa Came!!! My husband would never wait for the children to wake up. Santa would put the presents under the tree, fill the stockings and when all was perfect-he would go running around the house yelling at my daughter and son to wake up- Santa was here—–sometimes it was as early as 2or 3 in the morning. Of course, Mrs. Claus was irritated because she had not been to sleep- He even did this when my grandchildren were staying with us for the holidays…..but now my children are grown and my sweet husband has passed, I would give anything to have one more Christmas like that.
What an wonderful and unexpected gift this would be for my daugther!
my daughter would love this!
There is so much I love about this time of year. I love giving gifts, see that sparkle in my children’s eyes and their excitement and curiosity and the hustle and bustle .
This outfit would make my granddaughter’s day!
Please enter me in the contest.
My favorite part of the holiday is all the decorations. I love to see the lights shinning at nite reflecting off the snow.
Adorable! I still love dolls, probably more than my grandchildren!
I love watching others open their gifts, hoping they really like what I’ve bought for them.
American Girl dolls are so popular.
I would love to win this outfit for my Grandaughter’s doll.
My favorite parts of the season are the lights and decorations the baking cookies together and just all the family spending time together. It’s the best!
Please enter me in the contest!!
I don’t do Christmas because it is a man-made custom/tradition and it doesn’t say to celebrate JC birthday in the Bible but I do love seeing people giving to charities and helping others less fortunate out.
I celebrate my Father and His Son everyday of the year and when I find something I know someone will like, I get it for them no matter what time of the year. It makes it so much more special for the “just because” effect.
Nice prize!
I love to skate, and ski it makes the winter fun!
I love taking my kids to the snow and watching them play. They have a great time sledding and trying to build a snowman.
(My DD loves the cute outfit and can’t wait to put it on her doll Ashley.)
Thanks!
My daughter loves the American Girl dolls because of all their little accessories, like their pets and their little beds. We would love to win this outfit for her American Girl Molly doll.
My favorite thing about the holidays is our neighborhood’s insane Christmas light displays.
People must have huge light bills after the holidays.
You could see my neighbor’s house from space!
What an adorable outfit. This would be perfect for my God daughter’s doll.
My favorite part of the holiday season is hearing all the Christmas music and seeing the Christmas lights.

My family loves the holidays and to let the girls dress their dolls in holiday style is a marvelous way to let them use their imagination. Thank you for the sweep.
My favorite part of the holidays is when the decorating is done and you have a nice chilly/snowy day to spend indoors in front of a fire. With cocoa of course, and holiday music in the background.
Hoping to win!
my favorite part of christmas is making cookies with the children and then taking them to the homeless shelter to pass out to people there. My children really love doing this and have fun making the cookies
my favorite part of the holidays is when my grandchildren come up and help decorate the tree with me and then help put away the rest of the xmas decorations that we don’t use
this is adorable.
Giving gifts.
I would love to win this for the 2 American Dolls we have.
My favorite part of the holidays is spending time with my family. Its not often that my husband is actually home to celebrate with us. Deployments are insane lately.
