Snow and a frozen garden.
Christmas shopping and baking. I attempted to do more of a "handmade" Christmas.
However, for all the little kids in the family, I ended up buying some things. I tried to make sure I was either supporting a good cause when buying the gift, or it was made of recycled materials. This worked for almost all of the kids, but I will admit, some things were bought just because... Here are some links to great kids gifts from great companies (better late then never).
Stubby Pencil Studios
World Wildlife Fund
Sprig Toys
Plant a Billion Trees
My goal for next year: not go overboard with the wrapping. I bought a huge roll of wrapping paper that will definitely last us the next 5 years....should have thought that one through. Recycled materials from here on out!
And lastly, what's growing around here...Wheat Grass. A potent green that helps us through these dreary, cold days!
....it's nice to be back on the blogisphere!
Welcome Back. Everything looks Festive!
