Christmas is less than a week away and that's why I saved this Christmas themed giveaway for this last Wacky Wednesday before Santa makes his big run. Once the weekend comes, you know there's going to be a lot of last minute things to do, shopping to finish, goodies to bake, and yummies to cook. Oh, I'll still be around but I know you might not have time to visit and if you don't I'll understand but I hope you'll stay around long enough for your own chance at winning one of the three copies I have of CHRISTMAS EVE AT FRIDAY HARBOR by Lisa Kleypas.
Blurb for CHRISTMAS EVE AT FRIDAY HARBOR:
ONE LITTLE GIRL NEEDS A FAMILYOne rain-slicked night, six-year-old Holly lost the only parent she knew, her beloved mother Victoria. And since that night, she has never again spoken a word.
ONE SINGLE MAN NEEDS A WIFE
The last thing Mark Nolan needs is a six-year-old girl in his life. But he soon realizes that he will do everything he can to make her life whole again. His sister’s will gives him the instructions: There’s no other choice but you. Just start by loving her. The rest will follow.
SOMETIMES, IT TAKES A LITTLE MAGIC…
Maggie Collins doesn’t dare believe in love again, after losing her husband of one year. But she does believe in the magic of imagination. As the owner of a toy shop, she lives what she loves. And when she meets Holly Nolan, she sees a little girl in desperate need of a little magic.
…TO MAKE DREAMS COME TRUE
Three lonely people. Three lives at the crossroads. Three people who are about to discover that Christmas is the time of year when anything is possible, and when wishes have a way of finding the path home…

As I said before, I love Christmas songs, Christmas movies, and Christmas stories. I start listening to Christmas music as soon as the local radio station goes all Christmas at Thanksgiving and don't stop until they do. I've already seen WHITE CHRISTMAS on AMC four times already, A CHRISTMAS CAROL, THE HOLIDAY, and MIRACLE ON 34TH STREET, as well as a slew of others, including A CHRISTMAS STORY just the other night. Traditionally, every Christmas Eve or there abouts if we have to be elsewhere, my hubby and I watch either NATIONAL LAMPOON'S A CHRISTMAS VACATION or our newest one these past few years, LOVE ACTUALLY.
So - what is your Christmas Eve tradition?
