December Traditions etc.

1. Our Elf of the Shelf came 'alive' on December 1st.  Grace loves finding him each morning when she comes down stairs.
2. We started the Advent Calendar for the second year now.  Of course Grace loves eating her chocolate each night.
3. Grace went to a cupcake decorating event with Grandma a couple weeks ago and was in heaven making Xmas cupcakes.
4. Grace is going to the Nutcracker musical with Nan on Saturday.  Last year we went to the ballet and she LOVED it.
5. On Sunday we're going to our annual Big Canyon brunch with Santa.  We ALL love that event!
6. We got our tree & decorations up last weekend.  Cami loves the tree and Christmas lights around the neighborhood.
7. I am 90% DONE with all Christmas shopping and wrapping!!!
8. More fun Christmas events around the corner...

It's such a great month so far (despite the girls' re-occuring colds).  There is NOTHING like Christmas through a child's eyes :)
