Advent thus far...

 Snow Painting...

 Thanks to pintrest!

This was lots of fun...

 

 

Christmas Bingo...

The kids had fun playing this... they would have liked it more

if actual prizes were involved!

 

Gingerbread Houses (trains)....

  This is one of my favorites.  

However, last year we forgot the trick of putting the houses together with hotglue

and it was a complete flop.  Lesson learned, and we will always be ready from then on.

This year they were a success!

   

 I was completely impressed by little mans concentration!

 

 Love this pic... Ella was so proud of him!

Christmas Lights...

We had a nice surprise when we went to the all time

favorite house (the most lit up one around).  It was set to music this year!

Completely impressed for our small town.

   

Blessed our Mail lady...

The kids drew a picture for her and we gave her a small gift.

 

 The Grinch....

I had been looking forward to this night since I made the 

advent activities.  So when the evening arose for a night in we found it on the 

advent and chose to do it.  Probably because this momma was excited to try the 

Grinch punch! (it did not disappoint, it was SO good!)

   

In order to get to the movie, the kids had to find Ralph...

 do a treasure hunt... and 

get their jammies on!  

 The kids loved the punch and asked for seconds!

We had more the next night!

 More to come......
