This year we started a new tradition. Every night in December the kids got to pick out a piece of candy from the "slipper"(advent calendar) and a gift from their grandparents. We then chose to do a small activity for the night as a family. Sometimes it was just watching a Christmas movie and drinking hot coco, sometimes it was going out and doing things. We saw Santa, looked at Christmas lights, baked Christmas treats, saw gingerbread lane, and brought gifts to friends and family. I love this time of year and it was fun to start these new traditions as a family. Here are some highlights from the last month:
