On the 8th Day of Christmas Cards...






Cheryl gives to you...Home for the Holidays cards! To me there is something about Christmas that just says HOME. It is a feeling in your heart even when you can't be home. It will be a little different for us this year with two of our children not being with us. Ty is serving his mission in Spokane, Washington and Amanda is serving her mission in Paraguay. I hope that they have the feeling of home even though they won't physically be here. The BEST part of Christmas day for me will be our Christmas phone calls. We get weekly emails from our missionaries, but we only get to talk to them twice a year...Christmas and Mother's Day. I can't even tell you how excited I am to be able to hear their voices! What is your favorite memory of home at the holidays? Do you have a favorite card today? To have your name in the drawing at the end of the 12 days just leave a comment. If you would like to be in a separate drawing you can participate in the challenge and make a card that either has a home on it, the word home or symbolizes home to you. Hope you are making wonderful memories this year! Hugs, Cheryl

  10. What a wonderful thing being able to talk with your children.What I remember about home was the wonderful smells from my mom's baking, cookies, pies, breads, and fruit cakes. Here is my link for my tags and gifts.
