Here is one of our family Christmas snack recipes. It is called,"Goodies". 2 cups of all these things. 1. Rice Crispies 2.Captain Crunch 3.Raw Peanuts (roasted in oven @200 degrees until done) 4.Pretzels,broken up
Melt 1 package of Almond Bark Pour over the mix & stir. Break into serving pieces and enjoy.
Well Tonya, I think I also have to bid goodnight. I've been up since 4:30 this morn & I'm fading fast. See ya tomorrow - I almost have my challenge ready.
Look at the Candy Cane What do you see? Stripes that are red Like the blood shed for me White is for my Savior Who's sinless and pure! "J" is for Jesus, My Lord, that's for sure! Turn it around And a staff you will see Jesus my shepherd Was born for Me!
Many years ago, a candy maker wanted to make a candy at Christmas time that would serve as a witness to his Christian faith. He wanted to incorporate several symbols for the birth, ministry and death of Jesus. He began with a stick of pure white hard candy; white to symbolize the Virgin Birth and the sinless nature of Jesus; hard to symbolize the solid rock, the foundation of the Church; firmness to represent the promise of God. The candymaker made the candy in the form of a "J" to represent the name of Jesus, who came to earth as our Savior. He thought it could also represent the staff of the Good Shepherd, with which he reached down into the ditches of the world to lift out the fallen lambs who, like all sheep, have gone astray.
Thinking that the candy was somewhat plain, the candymaker stained it with red stripes. He used three small stripes to show the stripes of the scourging Jesus received, by which we are healed. The large red stripe was for the blood shed by Christ on the cross so that we could have the promise of eternal life. Unfortunately, the candy became known as a candy cane - a meaningless decoration seen at Christmas time. But the true meaning is still there for those who have eyes to see and ears to hear.
TEN COMMANDMENTS OF CHRISTMAS 1. Thou shalt give thy heart to Christ. Let Him be at the top of thy Christmas list. 2. Thou shalt prepare thy soul for Christmas. Spend not so much on gifts that thy soul is forgotten. 3. Thou shalt not let Santa Claus replace Christ, thus robbing the day of its spiritual reality. 4. Thou shalt not burden the shop girl, the mailman, and the merchant with complaints and demands. 5. Thou shalt give thyself with thy gift. This will increase its value a hundred fold, and he who receiveth it shall treasure it forever. 6. Thou shalt not value gifts received by their cost. Even the least expensive may signify love, and that is more priceless than silver and gold. 7. Thou shalt not neglect the needy. Share thy blessings with many who will go hungry and cold unless thou are generous. 8. Thou shalt not neglect thy church. Its services highlight the true meaning of the season. 9. Thou shalt be as a little child. Not until thou has become in spirit as a little one art thou ready to enter into the kingdom of Heaven. 10. Thou shall not forget to share your joy, peace and faith with those around you.
With so many loved ones, teachers, friends that my four boys have not to mention what I have, it gets very expensive to buy gifts. So every year we start collecting things we find on walks(in the woods), we make our gifts for Christmas. It is so fun to look in a box of junk and get creative, now I may have to purchase picture frames, wooden boxes and other small items, but when done there beautiful.
A personalized gift from the heart is way more precious than a bought one. The boy's love this and we use this as family time together after supper.
Have any of you seen those ornaments they came out with last year? Well 4 years ago we were making them.
When company comes over they get very noisy and anxious to see what they might be getting.

The Legend of the Candy Cane
Look at the Candy Cane
What do you see?
Stripes that are red
Like the blood shed for me
White is for my Savior
Who's sinless and pure!
"J" is for Jesus, My Lord, that's for sure!
Turn it around
And a staff you will see
Jesus my shepherd
Was born for Me!
Many years ago, a candy maker wanted to make a candy at Christmas time that would serve as a witness to his Christian faith. He wanted to incorporate several symbols for the birth, ministry and death of Jesus. He began with a stick of pure white hard candy; white to symbolize the Virgin Birth and the sinless nature of Jesus; hard to symbolize the solid rock, the foundation of the Church; firmness to represent the promise of God. The candymaker made the candy in the form of a "J" to represent the name of Jesus, who came to earth as our Savior. He thought it could also represent the staff of the Good Shepherd, with which he reached down into the ditches of the world to lift out the fallen lambs who, like all sheep, have gone astray.
Thinking that the candy was somewhat plain, the candymaker stained it with red stripes. He used three small stripes to show the stripes of the scourging Jesus received, by which we are healed. The large red stripe was for the blood shed by Christ on the cross so that we could have the promise of eternal life. Unfortunately, the candy became known as a candy cane - a meaningless decoration seen at Christmas time. But the true meaning is still there for those who have eyes to see and ears to hear.

My Family Tradition
With so many loved ones, teachers, friends that my four boys have not to mention what I have, it gets very expensive to buy gifts. So every year we start collecting things we find on walks(in the woods), we make our gifts for Christmas. It is so fun to look in a box of junk and get creative, now I may have to purchase picture frames, wooden boxes and other small items, but when done there beautiful.
A personalized gift from the heart is way more precious than a bought one. The boy's love this and we use this as family time together after supper.
Have any of you seen those ornaments they came out with last year? Well 4 years ago we were making them.
When company comes over they get very noisy and anxious to see what they might be getting.
