Here is a list of the things that make our Christmas season special. Though we don't get to them every year, we try to do so.
- Decorate the tree with the kids while listening to Christmas music. The youngest member of the family gets to place Baby Jesus in the manger in our nativity scene.
- Read our collection of Christmas books.
- Drive around and look at Christmas lights.
- Go to our church Christmas party.
- Have a date night to the holiday orchestra concert.
- Visit Grandpa in the Christian Home where he lives.
- Reading the Christmas story around the tree before opening presents
- Christmas dinner with all the trimmings
- Watch the kids perform in the church Christmas program.

Your kids are so cute, Jennifer!
ReplyDeleteAw...thanks...they take after their Daddy. :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm sure they take after you, too. :)
ReplyDeleteYour Christmas activities sound quite similar to ours! I've been enjoying a calm, relaxed Christmas season this year (thanks mostly to having older children to put up the tree, address the cards,wrap the gifts,lug everything up from the basement, etc.).
ReplyDeleteAnd I agree with Jessica--your children are little cuties. :-)
Yes, Judy--I love relaxing around the Christmas season. Those are last years pictures of kids and the one of Jerrod is from 2 years ago. One of my new year's resolutions is to take more pictures of the kids!
