We missed last year and the year before due to being sick with something or another. We miss that when we can't go because it is like our family reunion with that side of the family.Mama to 12, so farhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17759055814570254094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-553871403635498898.post-59100658357204813942018-11-28T14:11:46.245-06:002018-11-28T14:11:46.245-06:00Hi Friend Sarah!

A part of our Christmas that is always a tradition is to bake cookies and give them away to neighbors and friends. We always make special cookies that we only bake at Christmastime...and of course, we keep some for ourselves too, usually to enjoy for dessert on Christmas Day and as part of our New Year's Eve traditions. Such fun!<br /><br />Thank you for sharing this book with your readers...warm blessings to you!e l i z a b e t h ♡ https://www.blogger.com/profile/06852825809205799306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-553871403635498898.post-33465903218558072202018-11-27T20:30:48.926-06:002018-11-27T20:30:48.926-06:00I would love to learn more ways to make the holida...I would love to learn more ways to make the holiday season more memorable in a limited budget. We usually do advent study and bake cookies for the neighbors as a way to spread the Gospel in our community. I would love to own this book.

I have been steadily adding to my collection of books from Mrs. White, and they truly are inspiring and a wonderful addition to my personal library.I will be focusing on the True Meaning of Christmas this year. Having lost our firstborn grandson in June to suicide at 16, my world has been upside down. Holidays this year are heartbreaking..to see the empty chair at Thanksgiving...and to know THAT is what is to be from now on... My faith in God's grace, love and peace is where I find strength and courage to face each day. For THAT I am grateful and blessed. I find spreading love and kindness is a spirit lifter, and everyone likes to be treated kindly and loved. A blessed Christmas to you and your family Mrs. Collier.

My daughter and I had our "annual craft day" this past Saturday and painted some signs on wood that I can't wait to display. Next event will be our baking day which is always a lot of fun. (It's such a blessing that my daughter has now become a dear friend.) <br /><br />One of my big goals during my Christmas break is to (1) get my recipes organized and work on my menu plans and (2) to dust off my daily chores list and start using again. :-)Teresa bakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12893196163970900209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-553871403635498898.post-12722535748573801982018-11-27T10:00:08.678-06:002018-11-27T10:00:08.678-06:00Unfortunately, I work retail, so my X-mas plans ar...Unfortunately, I work retail, so my X-mas plans are what they are every year, which is to work 60 hour work weeks. It's a mixed blessing in that the extra hours of overtime pay enable me to buy presents for the family, but the holiday season is the time of the year when I see my children the least :( Hopefully, when we are out of debt from our student loans, this will change.5webshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07764594133665500630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-553871403635498898.post-20301185249480158322018-11-27T09:54:40.542-06:002018-11-27T09:54:40.542-06:00Our Christmas will be simply an old fashion one......Our Christmas will be simply an old fashion one...Christmas Eve family service, open one gift.
