December

December was busy wasn't it??? We've had a marvelous month full of wonderful treats, fellowship, reflection, planning, etc.

Our stockings were hung up with care (no fireplace, but Netflix has a fake fireplace!)

We trimmed the tree...

Made applesauce, cinnamon ornaments and hung them as a garland...

We made mini-mincemeat pies...
Hosted an "It's a Wonderful Life" viewing party...


Made St. Lucia buns...

And Daddy read to the children about her...
Miss Bella celebrated her first Christmas...



On the whole, Christmas was a beautiful day, full of love, laughter, relaxation. I'm so thankful for the special memories we're making as a family, lighting our advent candles, reflecting on the Messiah and His birth as a humble wee baby, coming into the world to be our Savior!
