You probable have seen this post on these jars. Well for Christmas I take some sugar and add a few drops of food coloring and voila! I also really love my stocking hangers from Gardner Village. I was shopping will my parents and mentioned how cute they were, but could afford the five of them at almost $20 a pop....my mom and I were shopping in another store when my dad walked in with all five in a bag just for me......awwww!

Every winter I become slightly obsessed with Stephens Mint Truffle hot cocoa. Along with candy cane peppermint Hersey kisses....holy yum!

Also for a family tradition we get ornament for each member of the family that represents something each person did that year. These ballet shoes were from last year when my girls started dance.
