Over the holidays, I plan to update my blog on all we have been doing with school. My camera lenses died, and blog posts are no fun without pictures! As a birthday/Christmas (and maybe Valentine's Day/Mother's Day/Anniversary gift), I got a new lens. Yea!!!! Pix of projects are coming soon! Here's a quick note about what we are going to be doing this holiday season. First, we are taking a break in the MFW-ECC curriculum to look at Christmas Around the World. We are also doing the
Truth in the Tinsel book. Secondly, as cute as my friend's elf on the shelf pictures are, I have enough mischief in my life without creating extra, and I know my kids well enough to know that if it's cute for the elf to do it, they would try it too! As a giving focused alternative, I am planning to combine the
Christmas Angel with
Light 'em Up activities. :) I plan to post some of these as we go. Since tomorrow is Dec. 1, I read the Christmas Angel book tonight, and I am making plans. What do you do in your house to keep your kids focused on Christ at Christmas?
And, while 52 weeks of cookies was cancelled by our household running guru, I will be making cookies through the holidays, and I'll post the recipes. :)
