The kids and I are busy baking, creating, wrapping and packaging while singing and dancing to our favorite Christmas music. You can be sure we are making time for time-honored traditions like decorating sugar cookies and building gingerbread houses. Nothing encourages those in my home like family traditions and sharing memories. That’s what our Encouraging Hearts & Home blog hop is all about each week.
Last week our most viewed post was 8 DIY Gifts You Can Make from Just Measuring Up. I took notes and just may be trying a couple of these ideas for future gift-giving!
In keeping with my Christmas family tradition theme, I chose to feature these awesome posts this week:
