How do you plan a simple Christmas for your family? With a down economy, tightened budgets and uncertain economic future, many Americans are simplifying the holidays--which is probably a good thing.
In my simple home, we'll be celebrating the birth of our Savior as a family ... praying together, going to midnight Mass as a family, exchanging gifts and eating healthy, whole food meals around our table. We'll keep a toasty fire going in the pot-bellied stove, and I'll keep a kettle of hot cocoa made from raw milk on for the kids.
I'm already thinking ahead to the holidays, so I wrote a series of eHow articles about Christmas gifts. I hope these simple articles will give you some ideas for your holidays.
First, you'll need a good Christmas Budget. Then it time to start making, baking and shopping!
While many people prefer to make their own gifts, some enjoy shopping and even splurging for holiday giving, so I included both ends of the spectrum in my articles. Don't forget to wrap your gift elegantly for the best presentation. What's on your Christmas list this year?
