Countdown to Christmas.....

The countdown is on.....and lets face it, it has been since December 1st.....We started a tradition of a family activity every night. Little did we realize that every night meant every night.....But the kids seem to enjoy it as they search for the envelope each day to find out what we are doing that night (trust me they are all not fireworks.....think plop down on the couch and watch the Grinch) But I have come to like not only doing them but coming up with new ideas each year (thank you Pinterest) So we have only a few more days and a few "make ups" since plans change and not every night works out (insert balmy 50 degree weather days and no snow!) So here is how we have been spending our countdown.....


The search for the days envelope.....

Going and walking in the Santa Parade. Brooke got to walk with her Brownie Troop again.
Hanging Balls of Holly ....Falalalalalalalala.

Hitting the light show at 5/3rd and visiting Santa......

Discovering what Naughty Nicky is up to every morning....



No school = Play dates and sleepovers!!

and wrestle dance mania.....

Class party celebrations = lots of good eats.....

and present hot potato.....

Which is HIGH-larious to one little Munson...

Always stationed at the snack table.....ALWAYS.

Lucky enough to join them on their celebrations.....

Cooking good eats, and treats!


So in between all the crafting, and baking, and movie watching and Xmas cheer there is also special time at Grandparents houses that allow us to hit the town! (thank you a million times over!)



So four days left we are in the final stretch.......
