I had lots of plans for home made Christmas stuff and didn't follow through on most of it. I did finish the peanut butter balls for the neighbors but not the cute little bags I was going to put them in. Maybe the gifts I started for the kids will be done by their birthdays and the home made tree decorations just got scrapped all together. The one thing that we did follow through on was the home made family gift exchange.
McKay made Bryce a book to write his stories in.
Bryce made Gracie puppets.
Gracie made Daddy Chocolate Chip Cookies.
Daddy made Nate a Coupon Book with lots of fun things to do together.
Nate made Abby a Makeup box.
Abby made Mommy a basket with flowers and chocolate and snowflakes in it.
Mommy made McKay a sign for his room.
Going home made didn't make the gifts less expensive and it was a lot more work (mostly for mom), but we had a great time and started a new tradition. It was awesome to see the kids so exited about doing something for each other.

Great homemade gifts!
How adorable! They will remember this all their lives. Thanks for giving me some great ideas too!
I think that is the best idea for Christmas! And I'm glad Sam finished his on time for Nate!
