For those that have asked about the snow falling--just visit here, and it is very simple to add snow falling to your blog. So, I'll be expecting to see snow fall around me very soon!!
And, I just have to share these picture of Miles. He is so cute when he is being good:

Here he is lying on a shelf that my son made. Of course, he cleared off everything that was on this shelf before he decided to perch himself there.

And here he is, just getting ready to take a nap, I think. He is really yawning, but in reality, I think he's laughing at me taking his picture!! He's thinking--"Just wait until she goes to bed, then I'll see what I can get in to. She thinks I'm so cute!! I'll show her just how cute I can be!!"

And, finally, I had my son draw a name from the mug to choose the winner:
I know I took a picture of him holding the name of the winner because we both looked at it!! But, for some reason, this picture is not on my camera this morning!!
Me too, Cherie, me too!!
A big congratulations to Cherie!! I really wish I could make all of those who entered an angel. If you really wish you had a little angel, just let me know. I'm in the spirit of CHRISTmas here, a giving spirit, and I'd be more than glad to make you an angel. Just let me know, and she'll be on her way to you--a CHRISTmas present from me to you!!

What?? Oh, the winner of the little angel. I almost forgot!! Okay--here we go!
There were 35 wonderful comments with beautiful Christmas songs. I love each and every song that you do!!
So, instead of using a random generator, I decided to do things the old-fashioned way because I'm just that kind of girl!!
First, I had to decide what to use for the container for the drawing. I finally decided on this Christmas mug:

Then, all the names were written on small pieces of paper, folded and placed into the mug:

Definitely O Holy Night. Every time I hear that song it just takes my breath away. It truly inspires me to worship Christ!
