Saturday Salutes

I tried a new Sweet Potato Casserole recipe this week and it was very good!

Jennifer has Advent Ideas for the entire family.

Ashley shares a cute S’Mores Gift Bag.

From Ann’s post on The Grateful Christmas Project, I love the idea of having our children create a “giving” list.  Ann says,

“Spend quiet time with each of the kids thinking and planning on what they can give
and how they can be the gift, give a blessing — so that they can live
out the truth of: It is more blessed to give than to receive. What can they make? Bake? Create? How could they surprise? Bless? Who is on their Giving list? Let’s focus on our Giving Lists —  and not so much on any getting lists.”

This pretty Christmas tablescape from Style Estate looks easy enough for me to do!

    Wow! Two birthdays this month? You do have a lot of celebrating to do this month! We only have one, and Mary is really looking forward to turning three! Do you celebrate half-birthdays? We try to, since so many of our children's birthdays are close to Christmas: December, January, and February.

    John loves sweet potato casserole (and so do I!), and the recipe I use is very similar to yours. Thanks for the link to all of the Advent ideas!

      Yes – our older daughter turns 14 on December 1st and our younger daughter turns 12 on December 3rd. My mom and sister-in-law also have December birthdays, along with a few other extended family members. Fun times!!

      We don't typically celebrate half-birthdays, but I think that's a neat idea!!
