finally, elle is old enough to participate in some of the family traditions. it's so fun to share these fond memories of our childhood with our kids.
josh's family has been making peanut butter balls for years, long before josh or anna. they are absolutely amazing and all of their close friends anticipate them each christmas {as do the family members!}. elle helped grammie and papa carefully mix the ingredients and then roll them into balls. papa is the pro at dipping so we left that to him.

vogel christmas morning tradition: homemade cinnamon rolls
my mom would make the best homemade cinnamon rolls for christmas morning. so this year elle and i decided to try it for ourself since we'd home on christmas morning. we started it kind of late in the day so by the time it got to rolling out the dough and sprinkling in the good stuff, we were already in our pjs. she was a great helper! the recipe we used made 7 batches of cinnamon rolls. so we froze a few, ate a few and gave a few away.
i LOVE family traditions, creating new ones and continuing old ones.
