Getting things done: The calendar says to bring cookies to a nursing home & sing carols for the residents, but we are switching a few things around since we missed this past weekend. Today we're doing our toy workshop where we fix up & wrap toys to donate. Saturday we'll have our kids' cookie-decorating party, and next Wednesday we'll visit the nursing home with cookies and carols.
Family Faith & Fun: Candy canes! Jessica at Shower of Roses tells the meaning/history of candy canes, and I found a great lapbooking unit to go along with the book, The Legend of the Candy Cane.
Food: My food budget starts over on Thursday, then I can start posting the holiday recipes galore for you!!! For now here are a couple of recipes from last year:
God Bless!
