More Christmas

Since we have been read the Laura Ingall Wilder series, I have been taken with the simple Christmas gifts that the Ingall family exchanged. They would be so overjoyed with a new apron sewn onto an apron, or Christmas candy, or a piece of stitched laced. Given these sentiments and a desire to not lose the real reason for the Christmas holiday, the Birth of the Savior Jesus Christ , amidst all the commercialism, we had a very simple but nice Christmas gift exchange.


Sophie received an adorable tea set, a mini american girl doll and some books.
Ben received a remote control car than can go on land or water, some mini airplanes and a tank recognition book.
Jacob received a wooden train set, mini airplanes and a Curious George book set.
Everything was on sale and we combined shipping (we did this all online) where ever possible. It was all very efficient in my humble opinion!
