Traditions we make today help form the happy memories of tomorrow. In the past few years I’ve really seen how true this is. The things I did year after year, back when my children were all little and everything seemed hard—well, now I know it was all worth it. The flour-covered table, the sticky floors and doorknobs…all of that was leading up to children who now look back and happily remember all those messy craft and cooking projects!
What are some of your family’s favorite Christmas traditions?

What a lovely blog I stumbled upon. Very inspiring! Christmas traditions here in Europe aren't all the same as where you live, like we don't really make gingerbread houses or put socks near the fireplace. We do celebrate 'Sinterklaas' on Decemember 6th, a saint that gives treat to good behaving children. We put our shoe near the fireplace, put in a carrot for Sinterklaas' horse and Sinterklaas gives some treats in return, to find the next morning, so I guess it's all the same in the end 🙂 I love your cookies, thank you for sharing!
