Getting into the spirit!

The kids are loving the advent calendar and we are loving watching the wonder on their faces this year.   They are very much in the Christmas spirit!  I've tried to come up with activities for us, but sometimes all I can come up with for the day is to put in a couple of Hershey kisses!  One guess as to which of my kids prefers chocolate over a special activity! :)  Either way, we are counting down and talking about how we are closer to Jesus' special day!

Opening a Christmas Look and Find
(Surprisingly this is currently ranked #1 on their favorites list!)
Please excuse, this must have been a clothing optional day.

Making Handprint Reindeer
So proud!

And a Christmas Carriage Ride!
We waited in line waaayyy too long for this, but they loved it!  Sorry the pics are dark and blurry!




Some of our other activities have included looking at Christmas lights, watching Christmas movies, and reading the Christmas story from the Bible.  There are a few really fun ones coming up too. Stay tuned!
