Is it REALLY Christmas already???

It just seems as though we were wrapping up Thanksgiving and here we are 6 days away from Xmas! There are so many things Rick and I want to do this Christmas season with our girls! From continuing to tell them why we celebrate Christmas, Who it is all about, that it is a time and season to enjoy family and loved ones. We have started building family traditions that I know we will enjoy for years to come. A couple new ones we've started this year are...

- Rick and Alaina attending The Nutcracker
- Building a Gingerbread House (from scratch...it's pretty difficult)

 


- Window Shopping @ Garden Ridge ~ we love that place!
- Watching the Christmas Story while decorating the house! 



- Scrapbooking our yearly pic and journaling! 
- Touring Rhema Xmas Lights


As we add to this list for many years to come, I've decided the best way to keep track of what we do, how we do it, and how special it is to us is to create a Scrapbook if you will. So here's a pic of it...



And this is the entrance I've posted for our girls, because this is who I'm making it for ~ so they will always know our traditions, our family values, and most importantly...how they are LOVED!






As I grow older and as my children grow older I'm started to realize how fast time really does fly by and how I HAVE to make the most of every moment. And then record it for them to enjoy later! :) Blessings & Enjoy Reading!
