Mama’s Holiday Wish List Meme

TodaysMama and Provo Craft are giving away a sleighful of gifts this holiday season, and to enter I'm sharing this meme with you! 

1.What 5 items are on your Holiday list this year?

-Hmmmm…I love spending this time with family.  Especially my own.  So I would love to have all 10 of my children with me on Christmas morning.

-Since I’m sick right now…I’m hoping for everyone  to have good health.

-Well, my favorite part of the season is giving to others  and seeing their joy.  So I really hope everyone gets what THEY want for Christmas.

-You know, living in Vegas, we don’t get much snow, so I would love it if we could have some snow for Christmas!

-And last but not least, I hope to be able to finish all the crafts that I started for Christmas presents.

2.What is your favorite handmade gift that you’ve received?

-Well, I love everything I have received, but my mother-in-law made me a lap quilt that was specifically for my size so I wouldn’t have to share (my kids would get under the blankets with me and end up having a tug a war with the blanket , so I told her that I wanted a blanket that was just my size, so the kids would get their own blankets and not fight for mine)…I ended up sharing anyway.  It was a wonderful, thoughtful gift though.

3.What handmade gift have you always wanted to tackle?

-I’ve always wanted to learn to sew and quilt.  This year I’ve finally started to do this.  I’ve taken some quilting classes and I’ve enjoyed this immensely.

4.What was the best Christmas gift you received as a child?

The best Christmas gift that I received as a child was my boombox.  I’m truly a person who loves music and I wore that thing out using it everyday.

5.What items are on your kid’s wish list this year?

Oh my goodness!! 10 kids wish list’s?  Are you sure you want to stick around for this?!

Let’s see:  I have two kids who want Nintendo DSi’s.  One that wants books from Deseret Book. One just wants money for a new car. Another hasn’t said a word.   A toddler that just wants everything that comes on the commercials.  Another wants a camera or money.  One that wants a dirt bike desperately.( so not happening) One wants a skateboard.  And the last one loves babies and the  accoutrements.

6.What is your favorite Holiday food?

Wow!  Who can choose?  I love it all!  I probably love all the sweet stuff that I make for gifts the most!  Cookies, peanut brittle…

7.What will you be handcrafting for the holidays?

I usually do papercrafting and baking.  I love to make things to put the goodies into.  Or tags for the goodies.  I would love to finish some sewing too.

8.What is your favorite Holiday movie?

My favorite movie would have to be “Miracle on 34th Street”.  Either one.  I love both.

9.What is your favorite  Holiday song?

Oooooooh…  The one that brings back the best memories is “The Christmas Song” by Nat King Cole.  I love, love, love that one!!

10.Favorite holiday past time?

I love watching the Christmas movies with the kids!
