If you haven't had a chance to grab a cookie from the kitchen ~ please do! Or, if you'd prefer, let's go over by the piano and sing some of those wonderful old Christmas Hymns. We can also sing some of the great traditional Christmas Carols or just for fun some of those fun and funny Christmas Songs for the young & young at heart? Don't forget, if you can't remember all the words there are Songbooks on the piano.

The children seem to want something more active to do. Why don't you give them a Coloring Book to work on. There are Christian and secular pages to color. Also, they will really enjoy the Christian Christmas Advent Calendar as I am sure you will too. It is loaded with all kinds of activities for each day from Dec. 1st right through Christmas Day.

If you have to leave, don't forget to stop over by the Christmas Tree and pick up your gift on your way out. My 2007 Christmas letter is finally ready, so be sure to grabe one to see what's been happening with me and my family this year. Speaking of gifts, I hope you had a chance to see the beautiful gifts and awards that I have received.

Please be sure and sign the Guestbook, I love knowing who came by Cathy's Christmas Cottage. I'm so glad you stopped by and hope you will visit again soon!

I love Christmas mail
