Christmas....

So i've seen lists of favorite things and traditions about the Christmas season on other blogs so thought i'd put my thoughts down....


Amazon boxes arriving almost daily

Opening the Advent Calendar every day to read a poem or song

Baking cookies with my dad and Alex

Our little snow village

Decorating the tree, reminiscing about ornaments

Seeing Alex's excitment about everything

Reading the Christmas story from the bible before opening presents Christmas day

Egg casserole Christmas morning

The Train Show

Making scrappy gifts

Making and decorating sugar cookies

Christmas music - love singing with Alex

Transiberian Orchestra - jamming and air guitar-ing to Christmas songs

Seeing Andrew in his Christmas performance

I'm sure there are a thousand more... i'll update as i think of them!
