Christmas Traditions
It has become a tradition for us to make a trip to ABC to see Santa. Every year it seems to get more and more adventurous, and by that I mean it gets more chaotic and stressful. Probably has something … Continue reading
Lowville in Brooklyn
In the weeks before Christmas I mentioned to my mom that Mae had been wanting to make a wreath, and if she had time could she clip some branches off of her evergreens for us and send them in the … Continue reading
Christmas is crafting
