Christmas is my favorite season of the year. I am not sure why but I think it has to do with the beautiful songs, decorating, baking, Christmas lights, and family time.
We decorated a couple weeks ago, it is so much fun turning on Christmas music, pulling out the boxes of decor., and decorating as a family.
Since Christmas seemed to sneak up when we weren't looking we didn't get to do as much baking as usual. So we picked our favorite Christmas cookies and made them. This consisted of Fudge mint cookies, Sandies, Oreo truffles, Peanut Butter Balls, Peanut Clusters and Chocolate Thumb prints.
Peanut butter balls are a tradition in our family.
I'm not sure how they got started but everyone loves them and we continue to make them every year.
Our first guest for the holidays came in on Saturday and people will continually be coming and going till the second week in Jan. It will be so much fun having family down for Christmas/New Years. We are especially looking forward to meeting our niece Elizabeth for the first time.
Jesus is the reason for the season!Merry Christmas and a happy new year!
