Talk about last minute

Well it's that time of year again and the kids are so excited to see the Advent calendar out. It's not up yet but it's out!! This was my favorite part of the season last year and I'm hoping that I can follow through with it this year, seeing as how I can't get it together this year. Man, I was so on top of it last year. If you'll notice some of the harder activites are replaced with much easier stuff this year. Here's our list so far.

2. Write a letter to Santa
4. Make an Advent wreath
5. Christmas party with friends and family. Give Santa our list.
6. Celebrate St. Nicholas Day
7. Buy our ornament for the year
8. Make ornaments with our playgroup. I'm thinking of this one OR this one.
9. Make pine cone trees.
10. Make magazine trees OR bows.
11. Hang mistletoe and start kissing.
13. Make presents for grandparents
14. Call grandparents and sing Christmas carols

I would say you are an awesome mama for even attempting any of those things! Remember they will love anything you do because their standards are a lot lower than ours! (lets keep it that way)
