Merry Christmas Giveaway!

  • I wanted to thank all of my blog readers and contributors from this past year! It is has been amazing to meet and stay in touch with so many great gardeners!
    I am blessed and feel very grateful to God. My teaching career has certainly kept me busy! My winter garden is still growing and it continues to be a joy to me.
    Pictures coming soon!

    I am giving away five garden plans on Christmas Eve at 8 pm. These plans make great gifts for the person that you want to help get a garden started. Give them the plans and help them build it too! The plans come in a digital downloadable 19 page PDF file.

    I will randomly select 5 winners on Christmas Eve and email them the plans that evening.

    To enter, leave your name and what you love most about Christmas – or just leave your name!
    Only one entry per person.

    Good luck and Merry Christmas!
    Melanie

  • Christmas has always been a magical time for me…when I was very young we had a fireplace that Daddy hung socks on Christmas Eve and on Christmas morning Santa’s boot prints were in the ashes. He continued that tradition until the grandchildren came and enjoyed the tradition. Sadly, Daddy died without all the grandchildren having that magic moment but his sons and son-in-law continued it. Family and tradition….trees cut from our own property and decorated with popcorn and cranberries and paper… cookies and milk for Santa and nuts and leaves for the reindeer. Sweet memories!

  • P.S. clicked before I was done… on Christmas Eve, after baths and with pjs on, Mama would read about the birth of Jesus from the Bible and then Daddy would read Twas the Night Before Christmas. By that time we were sleepy and ready for bed!
