Traditions!











My sister & I have always baked cookies on Christmas Eve and decorated them. We have done this for as long as I can remember. This year we let the kiddos join in the decorating and they loved it. We also added a new tradition. We baked a birthday cake for Jesus & the kiddos decorated it also. Though we do love Santa, we want them to grow up knowing the true meaning of Christmas! So we talked about how Jesus was born & how it was his birthday on Christmas! The final decorations were quite interesting but beautiful because it was made with love!

We enjoyed our time baking & making memories! Oma was our photographer because Mallory wanted to sit on my lap. Thanks, Oma! It was the all the girls & Britton in the kitchen. All the men were watching football!

Sweet, sweet memories!
