Kim with Heather Bullard
I’m so excited to bring you another week of Holiday Connections! This week we are getting cozy with Kim Demmon …….I’m SURE you know her blog, Today’s Creative Blog. Kim featured my blog over a year ago and I’ve been floating on cloud nine ever since! She features all the “cool blogs” , ya know! Kim is sweet, funny, VERY creative and I’m proud to say……my friend !
Kim: I always get inspired by what other people are doing. That usually gets me going in a direction, then I can take it from there.
Kim: We usually get our tree the weekend after Thanksgiving. We head out to a tree farm in Skamania County with my husbands family. It’s a tradition that we have a tailgater after getting our tree’s cut. We serve treats, spanish coffee’s and hot chocolate. We are always the envy of all the other tree cutters.
Kim: I just have the one son, so it’s ALL about him. He’s at that awkward stage where he’s transitioning from “toys” to mostly electronic stuff. I think we’ll get him an ipod nano so he’ll leave my itouch alone. Of course he wants playstation stuff.
Kim: Santa does not wrap his gifts. My son actually still believes in him. I have a feeling he’ll figure it out this year.
Kim: It wasn’t actually Christmas, but we were decorating the Christmas tree. We placed all the ornaments on the coffee table before placing on the tree. My boyfriend (now husband) sneaked a ring box with my engagement ring on the table. When I picked it up to open it, looking for an ornament, he asked me to marry him……….TM: AWWWE how SWEET is THAT?!
Kim: I like gathering with friends. We host an annual Cookie Decorating party for a small group of friends. It started for a way to get our children and us together. It is sometimes the only time of year we see them. We will celebrate our 9th one this year.
Kim: We always take a photo of our son, usually in a Christmas hat. Every year it’s a scramble, but we seem to always get that perfect shot. I only made them one year and lets just say it was a glitter mess for people when they opened it.
Kim: My dad would always make peanut butter fudge from memory. It is the BEST fudge ever! I have found a recipe that matches his……his was lost. He never used a pan to pour his fudge, always a plate. It makes a perfect thin piece of fudge…..TM: that’s how my late mother-in-law made her fudge too!….no one can make it like she did
Kim: Of course! My son draws him a photo and leave cookies. We also leave a couple of carrots for the reindeer after sprinkling reindeer food (glitter and oatmeal) in the yard.
Kim: I fantasize about having all the same color packaging, perfectly matched decorations. But the reality is I have a mishmash of old favorites. My house looks like the gingerbread house blew up during Christmas.
Kim: Peanut butter fudge.


I totally adore Kim! She rocks!
Thank you Cheryl, I sound much more interesting than I really am. 🙂
Cheryl, Thanks for this interview w/ Kim. She featured my tiny blog at a time I was feeling like I should just throw in the towel. I have loved her to pieces ever since!
I feel like I know her a bit better now! Holiday Connection is a GREAT idea~
Smooches to the both of you…
Robin
It was fun to read & learn more about Kim. As someone who had their teeny-tiny blog featured on her site as well, I can totally relate to the excitement. It’s the coolest thing ever! 🙂
