Preparations for Christmas

Trimming the Christmas Tree is always festive around our house. Christmas music on, cookies & cocoa consumption, we're ready to go!






Each night in December, our family goes through the book "The Adventure of Christmas" and reads something about the history and traditions of Christmas, such as trimming the Christmas Tree, why we light up the tree, and our homes, Santa Claus, Holiday Letters and Christmas Greetings. Everyone always enjoys this book each year.

This is something we started this year, an Interactive Nativity set called "What God Wants for Christmas"
