Our Books of Christmas






The kids have a whole basket of Christmas books they've received over the years. My grandma gets them a new one each year, signs and dates them. In 2000, when Kyle was a baby, I continued the tradition. This years book was The Night Before Christmas, a book that was mine growing up. Here's some pictures of our favorites.
Biscuit's Christmas is a scratch and sniff book. The smells have all faded but it had hot chocolate, pine cones, and candy canes. (much better than the Sesame Street scratch and sniff that had sardines and garbage smells-yuck!!--remember David and Michelle?)
The Lump of Coal by Lemony Snicket is a book from the library, but very cute, more adult humor, but definitely worth reading. Madison and I have a soft spot for Lemony Snicket as we're on Book 12 (of 13) of The Series of Unfortunate Events.
What are your favorite Christmas books/ traditions?

We had that same version of Night Before Christmas! Must remember to look for it at my mom's next time I am there!
