Happy New Year and Winners, Winners, Winners :)
My favorite book(s) for 2012 AND another giveaway hop
December 26, 2012Gotta love the Bad Boy Rehab Hop
January 9, 2013Happy New Year!
As you can see from my lack of posting yesterday, I took a small break away from the writing biz and just enjoyed the first day of the new year.
Okay, so I actually spent a bunch of time working on my family Christmas letter. Yes, you heard me right. My Christmas letter. I know. I’m way behind. Hubby even asked me why I was bothering with it this year. My response was that it is the yearly summary of our lives. I put these in my Christmas scrapbook every year and even he likes to look back and get a nice little reminder of what we’d done during the various years of our marriage. Also, during our surprise trip back home for Christmas this year, many of our relatives asked me why I hadn’t sent it out yet. So, with that in mind, I sat down and started writing.
Of course, me being me, I couldn’t do just any old letter. Last year was a quick hit and run note to our family because we were in the middle of moving. That one was “written” by Princess Bella and the Evil Queen. Everyone got a kick out of it.
So this year I decided to do a social media type note and used the Facebook format. That took a LOT of work, but turned out pretty well if I do say so myself. I improvised of course, but I hit all the high points and I got in a lot more pictures than I normally add.
Now I just have to hit print (front and back – lots and lots of blue ink…) and get them in the mail. Yay me!!!
Another thing I need to do is wrap up some blog hops that I participated in for December. Lots and lots of gift cards to send out… So without delay, here are the winners.

Cheers!

Hy,I’m Pauna O and i haven’t been notified,I left you a message on facebook and you didn’t answered:what is going on?please let me an answer soon.
Hi Pauna! I sent an e-mail on the 2nd at 4:49 pm central time to the e-mail address you left on the Rafflecopter and copied the author giving away the gift card. I checked my facebook page just now and have not received a message from you and I’m not seeing a note on my home page. I also tried to find you as a Facebook friend under Pauna and Nastya and am not finding you there either.
I’m not sure why we are not connecting. I am going to send another e-mail to the yahoo address I have. I don’t know if we are going to your SPAM box or not. If you don’t receive anything, please contact me directly at tamibrothers at yahoo dot com. Sorry about any problems this is causing.
Thanks!
Tami
