Around the Homestead

Christmas Season at our home

It’s all about traditions and spending time together. This year we decided to do things a bit different. Instead of cramming our last block of school in between Thanksgiving and Christmas, we decided to just take it off and celebrate the season.

Our bucket list for December and the Advent season are:

  • Advent devotional/Read the book of Luke
  • Make candy
  • Gingerbread cookies
  • Yule log
  • Yule log cake
  • Warm drinks (hot cocoa, winter cider, hot apple cider)

9 inches of snow is what we ended up with. Which is just incredible for us for November (or anytime if we’re being honest). It definitely got us into the Christmas spirit!

Merry Christmas!
