It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Having a toddler this Christmas has made me think about all the wonderful Christmas traditions I’d like to start with our little family. Jeff and I have a few traditions we have kept up since we have been married, but as Jack gets older and is able to start understanding more about Christmas, I’d like to start some fun traditions that he will always be able to look back on.
One of our favorite things to do each year is go to the Sorghum Mill Christmas Tree Farm and cut down our own tree. We started doing this the year after we got married, and it’s one of my favorite things we do before Christmas. Last year was Jack’s first year to pick out a tree, and this year he had fun walking around the farm and exploring.
I can’t believe my little buddy is so much bigger this year! He’s grown so much in a year.
