I love December!

December is such a magical time of year. It is a wonderful time of remembering our Savior's entrance into this world. And it is filled with special music, wonderful food, parties, and on and on. Having children absolutely keeps the magic of the time of year alive. The girls are having such fun with all the festivities. We decided to do an Advent activity each night after dinner. The activity is small - a craft, a treat, a story, but it is something to look forward to do each evening as a family. The girls, especially Elise, are very into it, and I had such fun brainstorming and planning each evening's activity. Here are a few pictures from our December so far.

Some of the Advent activities - ornaments, snowflakes, and Build that Snowman - Cooties style (the game)

I just love Lilah's snowman - melted apparently - it has been a warm December

Hot chocolate bar night - toppings included peppermint, Crunch bar pieces (still eating our Halloween candy), and marshmallows
