Advent Calendar

Well, our documentation and execution of our advent calendar this year is severely lacking...but we did our best!
Here is a smattering of some of the things...

A new tradition...

We've decided to make it a family tradition to read this story, and eat clementines, celebrating how easy it is to enjoy the simple pleasures in life, the goodness found in our hearts, and love of friends!
The story is about a boy in an orphanage who loses his only Christmas gift (an orange) as a consequence for breaking a rule. That night, each of the nine other orphans put a slice of their orange into the little boys hand.

One night the kids opened their new Christmas pj's...

Made Christmas Rice Krispy Treats...

We've also read stories, watched movies, went to the light show (with Grandma Pam), and lots of other fun things!!!
It's been a great month!
