"Deck the Halls..."

We've started getting our place ready for Christmas this week (we have the tree up). I start thinking about Christmas in August and I had the shopping for Reece pretty much finished by Halloween. I love this time of year! On Sunday, Reece and I made some homemade Christmas ornaments out of applesauce, glue, and cinnamon. He mixed the ingredients, I rolled it out, and he cut out shapes with cookie cutters. Then we poked holes in the top, let them dry, and tied them with ribbons. It was so easy, Reece had so much fun, and the ornaments actually smell really good!

These are precious. Would you mind to email me the exact recipe so I could do this with Jack? He would love it. What a great, creative idea.
