Finally got my scheduling down and was able to join in Anne's Currently link up, on time! I hope this sets the tone for the rest of the month because I need it 
Wrapping |
We do a book advent and I have yet to wrap any of our Christmas books!! I'm sorry, but with Thanksgiving being late this year combined with decorating for Christmas early (never again! Lol) I am completely confused and now behind.
Baking |
It's the second annual Sweets and Cookie Exchange at Cindy's house this Sunday and the girls and I are making Oreo fudge and baby cakes (which are actually cookies). I'll share the recipes in a recap post next week!
Lighting |
In an effort to root the true meaning of Christmas in our children's hearts, this is our second year of following Marty Machowski's Prepare Him Room and lighting a weekly advent wreath.
Sending |
As early as I got our Christmas cards printed, I have given out exactly one. Mailed those babies out yesterday and hoping they make their widespread destinations.
Enjoying |
The fact we are in school/work for three weeks until we're off for another two! I feel spoiled and yet crave that home time!
What are you celebrating this month?
Book advent calendar is my fave! But it really is a lot of wrapping... I managed to get it done just in time :) And ooh these cookies sound great - I'll be watching out for the recipes!
ReplyDeleteOMG I wish I had known about the Prepare Him Room devotional earlier!!! I have an advent calendar with Scripture readings all planned out; now we just have to go ahead and do them! Haha. Have a blast at the cookie exchange!
ReplyDeleteAlright, tell me more about this book advent! :)
ReplyDeleteAlso I need to start a christmas cookie exchange one year!
The short few weeks before Thanksgiving and Christmas, when I was teaching, were just the best.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to do the book advent in a few years when my one year old is old enough to get it.
