Our family has several traditions we do at Christmas time. Over the years I have started using a countdown calendar which has slips of paper with activities for us to do each day. The girls take turns reading the activity for the day. Here are a few of the things we did this year.
|
We made wreaths at Bahmah's house during Thanksgiving. |
|
We decorated our house with lights, a rare event. |
|
Relfie, our Elf on a Shelf came baring new pjs for the girls. |
|
M helped me make this scrap pallet tree for the front porch. |
|
The girls dressed up for the Creche Exhibit our church puts on every year. |
|
One of the many Nativities I have. Remembering the reason for the season. |
We decorated the tree together. This year we use a fake tree we got after
Christmas last year. We used LED lights instead of regular ones.
I don't think its as pretty, it puts off a cold light instead of a warm light.

Going to our ward Christmas dinner and visiting with Santa. |
We also made gingerbread houses, delivered goodies to friends, gave presents to homeless, watched Christmas movies, read Christmas stories and a myriad of other activities.
