This is the view outside my back door just this morning. Isn't it beautiful? We are currently sitting in the basement sipping hot cocoa with a little bit of Chocolate Mint Truffle Cream added to it while sitting around the fire. The children have all been outside playing in the snow, building medieval castles to go along with our unit on European History that we're studying. What fun! I'll post more pictures as time goes on.
Our New Year's Eve will consist of movies from the Love Comes Softly series, pop corn and whatever else we can find. We'll ring in the new year like we always do, with Daddy setting off fireworks in the back yard at midnight.
New Years Resolutions are not practiced here at our home. We decided years ago to stop doing that because by March we were beating ourselves up for not sticking to our resolutions. We realized that the Lord is gracious and merciful and that we needed to set goals and ask God to bless them instead. So, this is what we do in lieu of New Year's Resolutions.
Have a lovely New Year's celebration!
Blessings,
