ok so I know some of you are already
thinking about valentines day.
Don't you worry I have another
14 days of valentines
this year and I'm excited!!
Down to Business.
Some of you Know that Christmas
Is like a month of Party at our house!!
Usually around Christmas Time I spend some time
working out Advent so that it is full of
activities and games and food and fun.
This year we decided to use Advent as a tool
to center our Christmas more on Christ.
So at the first of the month we started following
this schedule to read a story from
the life of the savior every day leading up to Christmas.
The girls loved it.
I made an Advent tree to hang on the wall
and every night the girls pinned an ornament on it.
It was a great way to relax before bedtime every night
and reconnect as a family during this super busy season!
Of course our Month was not without a TON of FUN!!
Phase 1 - Our Tree Cutting Expedition!
We definitely enjoyed our trip to the tree farm.
The girls loved tromping through the mud
to find the perfect three.
Here is is!!
Making mudpies at a safe distance
while dad cuts the tree.
Enjoying some festive music at the barn
while dad was loading the tree.
All Loaded and ready to go!
Mr. T and the girls loved playing with the
tie down straps all the way home.
Phase 2 - Hudson Party!
What a Poser she is!!
Bonding with Uncle Darryl over Stickers.
Phase 3 - Christmas Eve!!
We had a super yummy supper and everyone got dressed up!
After that we opened pj's, had tubs and then
watched some Christmas Stars on Ice
and cuddled on the couch in Christmas PJ's.
It was Lovely!
Phase 4 - Christmas Day
Everyone Loved their Christmas Presents!
Thank goodness for Technology so we
could Skype with family!
Ms. E's favorite music box from cousin Z!
Ms A's Huge Art Kit from Cousin L,
and hat from Grandma Cathy!
Mr. T mostly loved ripping the paper
We were very spoiled and happy to be together for Christmas.
Hope you enjoyed all your holidays too!!
