December brings big changes to our schedule. And it is finally here! I’m so excited.
We’ll be working hard to finish up any outstanding work from this semester so that we can phase in our favorite Christmas-related projects. This year, instead of making our traditional Gingerbread Houses we plan to do Gingerbread Castles (we are studying the Middle Ages, after all!) Copywork will take on a Christmas theme. I’m looking forward to baking, decorating and reading by the fire. Advent starts in full swing tonight, too.
Plans for this Christmas season have been in the works around here since October! That’s when work began on the annual Mentoring Moments 12 Days of Christmas articles. I put this year’s content together, so I got a sneak peak at everything our writers submitted. It is going to be a wonderful series, so I encourage you to head over there and subscribe so you don’t miss a thing! Christmas party ideas, thoughtful devotions, crafts for kids, recipes, decorating tips and much more round out this series. We’ll be posting several new articles daily for the first 12 days, and one more article daily for the rest of the month.
Today’s content includes my article about holding a Gingerbread House party for kids, a yummy punch recipe, a wonderful idea for creating a Goody Basket for each day’s Christmas-related activities courtesy of Brenda (from The Tie that Binds and Joyful Holidays) and my devotional thoughts about finding spiritual refreshment during this hectic season.
I hope you’ll check it out! I also wanted to give a heads up to you fellow bloggers! Mentoring Moments will be hosting a blog carnival which begins December 6th, titled Homespun Holiday Traditions. To participate, please write a post on your blog this week about something simple and inexpensive you do at home to make the season special. Head on over to Mentoring Moments on the 6th and add your post URL to the MckLinky at the bottom of the post.
