Favorite Christmas Memories and Traditions {Episode 86, with the Swanson Boys}
Mele Kalikimaka!!
Hope you are all having a fabulous Christmas week! As promised, I have the Swanson boys on with me to bring some Christmas cheer!
Today’s episode is featuring son #1, and son #3 (Josiah, 21, and Luke 16.) Jonah and I are planning a separate episode which I will share in the New Year, so I also let Levi off the hook this week! 😉 (I promise to get that rascal on with me soon as well!)
Josiah, Luke, and I are talking about favorite Christmas memories and traditions. And, I’m guessing they aren’t too different from most of yours! I love so much hearing from my boys that their favorite memories are made of time together, simple pleasures, and the magic of the season. We cover some favorite Christmas songs and movies, gifts in the past on on the wish-list this year, and some favorite takeaways from the Christmas story. I hope you can gather your own kids and listen in. And we’d love to hear from your family as well, so please comment below (or have your child comment) and tell us some of your favorite Christmas memories, traditions, play-lists, or anything else.
