This morning's Advent tree note read:
"Today we'll mail our Christmas cards and make a star hat for St. Lucia's Day!"
Pictured above are the orange sweet rolls I make every year on this day ~ not from scratch mind you, but from Pillsbury. ;) EB doesn't care for these rolls (and he can't have them anyway), so he opted for a wheat bagel & cream cheese instead. The holly sprigs were snipped from our front bushes (and are now safely deposited in a vase on our nature shelf). After breakfast I'll help Earlybird make a star hat from large construction paper and bright shiny star stickers. He'll have fun making it, though I doubt he'll wear it for long lol. Hopefully he'll let me snap at least one picture before he whisks it off.
Later this afternoon we'll visit the post office, and mail our big stack of Christmas cards. And if we're efficient today (in schoolwork and housework, etc.) we'll have a batch of cookies to drop off with the kind ladies at the post office window.
Thanks for stopping by ~ hope you all have a great Monday!
