When we go cut our tree, we'll gather some more. I think the white painted/sprinkled cones look so simple and elegant. I just bought my snowflake punch yesterday and I'm excited to get started. Thanks, Maya, for the inspiration!<br /><br />When my kiddos were little, I bought a new Christmas book each year to add to our collection of Advent reading. Such fun memories!<br /><br />JodyGumbo Lilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02747138637571716591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6777506989220366832.post-56453790665554051212009-12-02T10:27:33.928-05:002009-12-02T10:27:33.928-05:00What a wonderful idea!
