Letters to Santa giveaway!

Hello my friends! Can you believe Christmas is one week away? Ahhh! Thankfully I'm pretty much ready, other than a ton of wrapping. This afternoon after school begins our family's favorite two weeks of the year. We sleep in as much as possible, make good food, go see a few movies and basically hibernate in the basement every evening. It's the best two week EVER. :)

Today I have a fun holiday-themed giveaway for you! This isn't just any book, it's my favorite book of the year. You may have seen my story about it a couple months ago: 
letters to Santa book

Long story short, I walked into Hallmark one day, saw this pretty book on the counter and picked it up. I only looked at a few pages and the last one I came upon was a letter in my childhood handwriting: 
letters to Santa book

Yes, my letter to Santa, 30+ years later. No, I had no idea it was going to be in the book. It was the find of a lifetime! I'm still in shock it happened and can't explain it. It's a testament to the magic of Christmas, that's for sure. 

The book is a beautiful one with letters to Santa going back to the 40's: 

I think those are my favorites. :)

The letters are sweet, sad and funny. These are from the 2010's and both made me laugh out loud (read to the end of the one on the right):
letters to Santa Claus book

The publisher of the book has given me a few books to giveaway to you this holiday season. If you'd like one just comment here this weekend (please include your email address) till midnight Sunday evening (EST). I'll pick three winners on Monday. :)

You can find the book online here as well.

Have a wonderful weekend! I'll be back next week with a tour of our Christmas home!

    As life continues at warp speed I have begun to think a lot of and miss that time of Christmas in the 60's. The store windows revealed with the displays of the "the beautiful dancing ballerina's". Never mind this is in the Mid-West where December means temperatures in the teens with gusty wind. We of course are dressed in our Christmas best -- short red velvet dresses & black leather shoes. Desert - mint ice cream covered with melted chocolate at the coolest Chocolatier Restaurant. Shopping meant the 'Children's Christmas Shoppe" No Parents allowed (that didn't stop my father who crawled thru the little curved door looking for us cause we were taking sooooo long). Just trying to decide between the Pre-shave or the After-shave cologne in teeny tiny 1 oz. bottles. The mystical toy-land with the interactive elves and the spinning dancing Mr. & Mrs. Santa Clause. We knew nothing of the "real world". The Viet Nam war, the lovin hippies or political unrest. We were so insulated and safe. "My Letters to Santa Claus" reminds us all of those innocent moments, no matter the decade. Your letter was full of love and perfect penmanship of Script writing, now no-longer taught. Its all about the key boarding. But we always have "our memories" no matter the decade.

    Love the book!
    how neat it would be to read aloud to my littles...the younger set of grands..
    and to have the Bigs..older set of grands..to read aloud and share a discussion about the contents of the letters..
    would read it through and through just for simple joyous glimpses of childhoods past!

    So neat you found your letter. Remember when you first mentioned it earlier this year. That's so special! I'd love to have this book to pull out every Christmas. My children are grown but hopefully there will be some grandchildren in the near future.
