Traditions

Feeling Stitchy had a comment extravaganza where she asked bloggers to comment about holiday traditions. Like a lot of people I have many childhood memories. But I wanted to comment on the traditions that my husband and I are creating for our two kids. Way back when (oh 8 years ago I think) I made this (horrible) tree skirt out of bad Joann's felt and muslin. It was what I had on hand at the time of course because I'm doing this on Christmas Eve. Every year on this bad craft we print the boys hands with paint and write the date with the Sharpie. It's a tradition I enjoy sharing with my boys who could care less now but hopefully when they have their own children they can look back with great memories.
