We have our winner!!

Congratulations to Pam Kemmerer!!

Pam wins the copy of Garth Brooks: Beyond the Season.

Since the contest is over, here are the answers.

Here is how it works.

Each question is a line from a Christmas song. You need to look on the clue page to find the line that follows it in the Christmas song. The answers are found behind the Christmas ornaments on the tree.

For each answer, you must also remember the correct mystery letter as well as the song lyric. Here is an example:

Say the question reads:
Deck the Halls with boughs of holly...

and you find hidden behind one of the ornaments,
Fa la la la la la la la la. AND the Mystery letter "R."

When you answer this question on the form, you need to answer with:
Fa la la la la la la la la. The Mystery letter is "R."

Only answers that contain both the completed lyric, AND the mystery letter will be accepted as correct.

So, in effect, if you just send me the song lyric without the mystery letter, and you give me the mystery song title, you will NOT qualify for the drawing for the prize, because you did not include the mystery letters along with the song lyric in your answer.

The mystery song title contains two words. You need to find the mystery letters, and unscramble them to come up with the song title.

What's the prize? I will be giving out a CD of
Garth Brooks: Beyond the Season.

This is the last year you can purchase this CD. After the end of the month, there will be no more copies made.

All entries received before December 21st, with correct answers of BOTH the completed lyric with mystery letter for all 10 questions, PLUS answering the mystery song title, will be eligible for the drawing for the CD.

Prizes will be mailed within 3 days of receiving mailing information from the winner. After mailing, I am not responsible for prizes arrival, and cannot replace items that are lost or damaged in mailing.

Winners will be posted to this page on December 21st.

One entry per person.

When you have all 10 song lyrics written down, go to the Clue Page and start looking behind the ornaments for the lyrics and mystery letters that match.
