HAPPY DECEMBER 1st.......................


Happy December 1st! I love December 1st it is like a mini-holiday at my house!!!! When I was little my mom started our December 1st tradition, each year on the 1st she would give us a gift to bring in the Holiday Season! Over the years I have received many fabulous things that I still use today...from Christmas decorations, books, ornaments, fun Christmas jewelry anything that can be used through-out the month of December-my mom still does this tradition for each of us and our families. I have also continued this terrific tradition with my husband and kids. I loved growing up in a home where my mom put a lot of time and thought into making Holidays and Birthdays so special Thanks Mom! Love, Marla
We would love to here about some of your Holiday Family Traditions-Happy December 1st!
Love, The Tipsy Girls

How fun, there is nothing like gifts huh?
We like to have home-made cinnimon rolls and hot chocolate on Christmas morning. I especially like to make "cinnimon roll wreaths", they are very pretty and yummy.

Sorry I spelled Cinnamon wrong, TWICE!!!

That's a great idea. We read a different Christmas story every night in December. And I've always gotten the boys Christmas pjs. We do a special thing where we each write one thing that we're going to try to do better - like being nice to our brother, doing our chores when asked, etc. - and we wrap it up in a special box, and that's our gift to the Savior. Then on Christmas Eve, we unwrap last year's promises and see how we've done and choose new promises for the coming year.
