I have added pictures of our Kinder/ 1st Grade Christmas Party!!! You can check them out HERE! Having 50 or so children in my house was not as rough as I thought it would be, we all had a wonderful time!!!
I still want to add some pictures of our tree and nativity that my mother made...I've not dug them out of the closet yet, but will soon. Thank you for all you do!!!
Hi Tiany. Hope you are feeling better. I have my open house post up. I enjoyed reading yours, and can't wait to see all the others. Thanks so much for doing all this. Julie
I just noticed that I am #18 - On Our Journey Westward AND #19 - Cindy. I didn't add myself twice. I have no idea how #19 got there. If you are able to remove #19, that would be great. Thanks! :)
Hi! I am so sorry I linked up with your Open House when I thought I was linking up with Monday Meanderings. It appears as if there is no way I can remove it. If you can remove #21, please do. I feel bad people are going to come over looking for Christmas tradition and only find what I am doing this week! Sorry!! :(
Hi Tiany. I entered and am #25, but I typed by blog entry incorrectly. I couldn't copy & paste my url in and made a mistake typing it in by hand.
I forgot to add the .com.
How do I fix it?? Thanks! Holly
Here's the correct link:

I would like to take part in this, but it may take awhile for me to get it written up!!! Your blog is beautiful. I am a home school mom but have not really connected to any home school blogs. I'm just not familiar with any. I have home schooled both children since kindergarten, and have loved every minute of it. my oldest is graduating this year, and my son is in 9th grade. It is hard to believe that I am so close to being done...it's kind of sad. I would love to be an encouragement or help in any way I can to the home school community. If God calls you to home school, we must persevere! The rewards are countless! It has been the best thing for our family. If you know of any way I can be an encouragement to the home schooling community, please let me know!!
I'll be back with my open house post ASAP!
GOD BLESS YOU!

as I was leavign my link the room exploded into chaos and I left the wrong link... :( the second one is correct!
I LOVE this idea..thank you so much for doing it!
Hi Tiany!
Its a good thing we believe in the God who gives second chances. Seems like several of us, myself included made mistakes in our first effort to post our links. My second link works but I don't know how to take off the first one that doesn't.
For you moms on a tight budget, or just in need of ideas I've put together a quick little e-book of inexpensive, cute, easy to make Christmas gifts that you can make with your children as gifts for family and friends. Just go to my site to download it free.
Also - allergies - as the wife of a Dr. I have a solution - generic Claritin - it sells by the name of Loratadine - I got my last supply at Sam's Club - very inexpensively. I've also found it at Dollar stores for $1 for a months supply. It is the same thing as Claritin but a lot of people don't recognize the drug name - I know I didn't until my husband pointed it out to me.
Have a great week at the open house. I know I can't wait to start exploring your different sites.
i am new to all this. how do i make the open house link back. i have the picture up and i am ready to get started but i need help in linking back. thank you.
I loved hearing about your Christmas, I really love your toy nativity scene, how fun! Thanks for hosting this, its great. Can't wait to get around and see everyones.
Thanks Tiany for posting this fun event! I can't wait to check out all the wonderful websites and read all about the fun stuff everyone else has!

This is a wonderful idea. I'm hoping to get a couple of posts up this week as we begin our Christmas preparations. Thanks for hosting - and I'm looking forward to reading others' blogs, too!
Karen
It's so much fun to join in with this :) I am enjoying looking at everyone's blogs already! I wonder how many will participate this time!
Thanks for hosting it!
Love,
Joy
I saw your comment on Mrs. Marlow's blog the other day. I just wanted to say that I made it safely back to Blogland, but the entire world over here has been turned upside down. I posted pictures of the flooding on my blog. Could you please say a prayer or two for the people who live around me? Many of them lost everything but the clothes they were wearing.
Tiany, I'm glad you like my new blog look, I feel honored to have your compliment! The Holiday Open House has been great and I've gotten to visit quite a few of them, maybe I can catch a few more when I get back from out of town on Sunday evening...after the Oprah Winfrey movie...LOL. One More Day is the name of it. Thank you for coming by and come again soon.
Thank you for stopping by and leaving a comment. I am so glad the Hanukkah readings are a blessing to you. I was blessed to find that you are hosting an Open House. I posted about this in my blog and hope it blesses others as well.
I finally posted my open house! Wow! I almost missed it!
By the way, Thanks for the wonderful posts on blogging and graphic stealing. I really do not understand all the "hotlinking" and things like that. I try not to use anything except graphics like yours for things like this. I think I am doing it right. Your links really helped!
