Living a “childish” holiday. Today Emma-Catherine, our daughter, pops on to share her thoughts on holiday traditions. Each holiday brings new memories, but listening to our children share their favorite moments always makes me so happy. There is always joy in their voices as they light up with glee chatting about what their must do list is.

What is in Emma-Catherine’s cup? Hot tea, we love this stuff around the holidays – a boost of Vitamin C and all the warm spices of the holiday.

Favorite baked goods around here? Sausage balls, sugar cookies with extra sugar, peanut butter balls aka homemade Reeces Cups.

Our Elf on the Shelf, Happy, makes his appearance every year on December 1st.  Hopefully COVID did not kill him off.  He brings a hot chocolate bar for the kids to warm up too after school along with a gingerbread house for them to construct!

He is a good elf, and he doesn’t make messes for me to clean up! He does like high adventure activities like zip lining and parachuting in underwear.

Decorating means more hot tea, opening boxes to reveal holiday memories, listening to holiday music and watching a Christmas flick.

Leave us what you like to do! We love new ideas this time of year!
