Entangled Under the Mistletoe Blog Hop!
Dec 07
Hello, and thank you for stopping by my site for the Entangled Under the Mistletoe Blog Hop! My favorite holiday, by far, is Christmas. Yeah, I know. I know. Everyone says that. But it is! The joy in everyone’s faces as they greet family, wish strangers a happy day, and the happiness in my children’s eyes as they open presents? Priceless. And above all of that, it’s such a meaningful day for Christians everywhere. The day where we all celebrate on man’s birthday by giving out gifts to one another–and spreading good cheer to all we see.
It’s the time of year when everyone pulls together to help those in need, even when the money is tight in their own homes. It’s the time of year where you can randomly break out in song–like in a musical–and no one laughs at you. They might even join in and sing a chorus or two of Jingle Bells. 
And to celebrate the holiday spirit, here at Diane Alberts I am giving away not one, not two, but three eBooks I’ve published with Entangled Publishing! That’s right! You can read On One Condition, Divinely Ruined, and Try Me on your eReader just for commenting!
All you have to do to enter is leave a comment below telling me what your favorite part about the holiday season is!
So comment below, and you could be happily reading these three romance novellas, while sipping eggnog by the crackling fire. And on December 7th, at 9pm EST, and many of our authors are going to be having a Twitter Chat!
Join us for the chat with the #EntangledUndertheMistletoe & answer fun holiday-themed questions to win 10 prizes–including ebooks, giftcards, and more!
It used to be time off work, but now I work for myself, there’s no such thing!
I hear ya there! LOL
Happy Christmas to all. I love the way Christmas seems to change peoples moods. You see many more smiles and people willing to speak to each other, even if they are strangers
I agree! I think it *might* be my favorite part!
The best part of the holiday season is to spend time with family, the meals, the opening of presents, simply being together and enjoying the season.

My favorite part is seeing how happy and excited my daughter is about the holidays. She loved doing holiday crafts with me and it’s so fun. The excitement on Christmas morning is the best though.

The last twelve months have been manic, so this Christmas is all about icing gingerbread men with my daughters, wearing silly reindeer antlers, and singing carols all day long! Oh yes, and taking some time for myself to recharge – hopefully with your gorgeous novellas! Happy Christmas Diane and everyone else!
Oh, I love this answer, Ella!
The lights! I love to drive around and look at them, and we love to string them here!

I love that as well, Josie!
For me, Christmas is for family, especially the children. My own children are grown, but because I resisted the urge to strangle them, I now have four grandchildren and they are the joy of Christmas.
Haha! I hear ya on the strangling!
I like decorating the tree, and baking. My favorite thing is having everyone together even if it’s just for a little while. I like hanging out, sharing, laughing and just relaxing with family.
Me too, Julianne!
I love all the family time, baking cookies, making a gingerbread house, decorating, cutting down a tree..it is all things we take time to enjoy together.
Merry Christmas !

Those are all excellent, Kym!
I love Christmas! My office has a wonderful tradition of working skeleton crew through the Christmas/New Year holidays, so we all get some much-appreciated time off for family and church celebrations and our annual trips to look at Christmas lights.
Merry Christmas and thanks for the contest!
Oh, that sounds fun Kim!
My favorite part is that I can bake cookies all the time and no one thinks it’s weird.

Me too, Jan!
My favorite part of the holiday season is the baking. I just LOVE all the different recipes people whip up
Mm. Baking!
My favorite part is watching my grandkids learn about the true meaning of Christmas and how to be charitable. This year my 7 year old Girl Scout granddaughter got to ring the Salvation Army bell and she had a great time doing it.
Aw, that’s so sweet, Linda!
I actually don’t like Christmas very much (lots of sad stuff around a holiday can kinda put a damper on it) but every year I try and make happy memories to wipe away the bad ones… the one thing I DO love though is seeing everyone’s lighted homes! There’s something about bright colorful lights everywhere that makes the dark winter months we get a little less gloomy.
Aw, hugs to you!
Seeing family!!! I love it!
