...and smell like Christmas! :) I've been baking Mini Cheesecakes, Chocolate graham rolls and Christmas tarts because on Sunday, after church a few of us will be going caroling to a home, and then coming to our home afterwards for some refreshments!! I also made some large snowflakes to hang in our family room, so our house is looking more and more christmasy and smelling even better .... especially because for Family Home Evening last night, we got a Christmas tree and decorated it while listening to Christmas music and trying Egg Nog Ice Cream! :) (have you ever tasted that?) If you like egg nog I would imagine you would LOVE it! I liked it quite a lot since I enjoy egg nog - but I also added a little bit of choco ice cream with it and it was even better! lol.
So, from smells, to decorations, to singing Christmas songs ... it sure is looking a lot like Christmas!
We enjoyed going to a ward Christmas party last friday - and the kids loved seeing santa and getting goodies from him :) santa spent quite some time with Ethan talking to him about how his night is on Christmas Eve - what a busy man Santa is! :) Ethan was told specifically that he needed to make SURE there was Cookies and milk when he gets to our house because he is one hungry fella!!
We also got to go to a Christmas Craft Fair, which was really large and full of all kinds of neat things. We didn't really buy anything, except for this delicious pumpkin butter that you turns into a dip and I thought would be really yummy for Christmas eve. :) We're starting to get some Christmas traditions down and for the first Christmas ever noticing some things we are doing as routine each year with goodies we're making, to movies we watch, and making those snowflakes & things. Hope you are all enjoying this wonderful season as well :)
