Sweet Christmas Extras

This is a good year for extra holiday cheer. The children have become ever so enthusiastic.

What we're working on:
  • painting little porcelain ornaments (bajillions of the $o.39 kind)
  • gluing felt to felt for holiday decorations
  • magazine Christmas trees
  • paper hand-traced wreaths and trees
  • gazing longingly at the chocolate-filled advent calendars...one day to go
  • systematically working through a Hershey's mini-bar bag (only a few Krackle ones left)
  • watching our all-time favorite holiday movies at least twice
  • learning the words to all those Christmas carols
  • Christmas cards
  • setting up the Nativity
  • putting up our real tree
  • cookies, cookies, cookies
  • and milk
  • and/or almond milk
  • watching out the window for snow flurries
