Advent (catch-up): Days 6-18

Some of our advent activity...hockey game
sledding with the Californians

stocking exchange with family in town

(aren't these suckers the coolest...and tasty too)

Christmas reading

(We keep our Christmas books hidden away for the year so they are extra exciting. I usually add one or two new ones each year. Room for a Little One and One Wintry Night

are two of our favorites. If you have youngish kids or grandkids,

you might want to add them to your collection.)
