christmas adventures



this year we followed the same tradition as last year
and had a special thing to do everyday
in december up until christmas day.

each morning the kids would open the box
and pull out our activity/adventure for the day.

i told myself last year i needed to take more pictures
to document all the fun, but i failed miserably, again.

we had tons of fun and celebrated the holiday in many fun ways.
here are some of the highlights.


drive to see the animal lights
{we drove over there but the hayride line was huge
and it was freezing outside, so we opted out}
decorate christmas tree
make christmas bread
sleep under the tree
walk around temple square and see the lights
deliver neighbor goodies
make homemade snowflakes
take cory out to lunch
see santa for fhe
go sledding
watch the nativity movie
make a snowman
play games
read christmas scriptures
watch a charlie brown christmas
drink hot cocoa with marshmallows
watch a movie with popcorn
read christmas books
cory and connor go skiing
act out the nativity


and more that i can't remember off the top of my head.

connor's tree

mabel's tree looks a lot like connor's last year,
candies all lined up.

with mabel, everything goes in a straight line.
{chairs, books, candies on the tree, and magnetic letters & christmas cards on the fridge are all lined up at our house}
