Farmhouse Friday No. 2

Welcome to the second taste of Farmhouse Friday here at Woodwater Farmhouse. So glad you popped in for a minute or two to say Hi and check out the happenings here.

In case you missed them - here is what was happening on the blog this week:

Make it Monday - using the Cameo - embellished some cute enamel cups for the kids hot cocoa bar.

Glimpse into our farmhouse Christmas: just a quick glimpse into our farmhouse decor this year. More to come!

Homeschooling this past week....we finished up our November teachings and started right into December. We will be taking it nice and slow in December and hoping to enjoy some visits from friends and community service opportunities.

These are very cute countdown activity books that I found at Target last month. The girls are loving them!

Each day we read a new book from our Christmas Collection and we started a unit study on one of our favorites The Mitten. Lots of games this week also and advent happenings.

Molly has also been playing the keyboard this week. We bought stickers for the keys and a keyboard book and she is on a roll. Hoping to have Silent Night, Jingle Bells and We Wish You A Merry Christmas down pat by next weekend when our BFF's come for the weekend to celebrate Christmas!

What I am obsessed with this week: the annual Jennifer Rizzo Holiday Housewalk. Talk about some magazine worthy homes! Just dream of having a home so decorated like the bloggers participating this year! If you have some time and a cup of tea or cocoa, head on over!

Reindeer Cam - if you are not familiar with this fun family cam, then where have you been? Seriously it's the cutest thing!

On tap for the weekend -

Saturday we will be getting our big tree (real) for the living room. We now have VERY high ceilings and can get a very tall tree (hoping for AT LEAST a 10 footer)...watch IG for updates.

Hubby and I have a surprise birthday party to go to tomorrow also.

Sunday is church followed by an advent concert at our old church. I look forward to this concert every year!

The children will also be spending the night at Grammies and Bubby's house Sunday, (we split them up, works out nicely) so hubby and I can get some wrapping done and have a quiet at home date night.

Thanks for stopping in and I pray your weekend is filled with comfort and joy!
