I love my mom's house during Christmas. We have had the same
stockings for as long as I can remember. My mom made them out of
Levi's and they have our names on them. We started out with 7 and now we have 32 of them! I couldn't get them all in the picture, but you get the gist of it. Every year growing up on Christmas morning my Granny would make sourdough
biscuits for everyone in her family and their kids and their families. We would all open our presents and then head out to her house to eat. I would be willing to bet that every year at least 150 people passed through her house on Christmas day. It was a wonderful
tradition that I know none of us will forget. She was such an amazing Granny! Now, my mom makes
biscuits and waffles every Christmas morning for her family and we LOVE it too. There is just something about tradition that makes a house a home.
The big storm that brought us about an inch or 2 of snow brought them about 18inches of it. It made for a good day of sledding down the driveway. Here's Carter all bundled up and ready for the freezing temps.
Gage was right there with him red cheeks and all. It's was COLD! On our way home there was a spot where our truck read -14degrees.
And here's
Katerbug. She was
privileged to be the only girl there that day but she was right there with them.
