“I
love the excitement, the child-like spirit of innocence and just about
everything that goes along with Christmas,” said Hillary Scott. “My
little sister will be 12 this Christmas and it is always so sweet to see
her wake up every Christmas morning and wonder what Santa brought her.
It was that way for me growing up and it’s so amazing to be able to
spend that time with her now.”

“The
perfect winter’s night for me would be with all the family together,”
added Charles Kelley. “As you get a little older and everybody has
their jobs and then families and kids, it definitely becomes harder to
get everybody together at once. It would be pretty special to have the
whole family in the room and get back to where we were as kids…all
waking up on Christmas morning, walking down and having that tradition.”

“We
recorded this album in two sections, but both times were in the
summertime,” noted Dave Haywood. “It is always weird to be in the studio
working on Christmas music in June and July, so we decorated the entire
studio, we really did. We brought out lights, fake trees and decorated
the place to get in the Christmas spirit. You’d leave the studio, and
it’d be 100 degrees out in Nashville, but nonetheless, a great
experience.“

return as co-producers alongside veteran producer Paul Worley. For the
festive release, the trio penned the album’s title track and created
their own arrangements for two of the disc’s additional 11 holiday
classics.
